Farallon Opens South Bay R&D Facility

ALAMEDA, Calif., April 8, 1996 -- Farallon Computing, Inc., today announced
that it has opened an office in San Jose to serve as its South Bay
hardware research and development facility. Farallon will maintain its
engineering offices in its Alameda, California headquarters as well as in
Lawrence, Kansas.

The San Jose office was opened to accommodate the growing number of
engineering resources that Farallon is acquiring to work on its popular
hardware products, including the Netopia(tm) family of high-speed Internet
access solutions and the EtherWave family of daisy-chainable,
plug-and-play Ethernet solutions.

"We are finding that many of the engineers we are hiring live in the South
Bay, and we wanted to have a facility that was conveniently located in
order to attract some of the best people in the business," said Rita
Dettore, human resources manager.

Farallon's new R&D facility is located in the Lincoln Park building at 2880
Zanker Road, Suite #207, San Jose, CA 95131. Engineers interested in
working at Farallon can contact human resources at (510) 814-5100.
