MINDQ PUBLISHING INC. AND RAPID SYSTEMS SOLUTIONS, INC. DEVELOPING JAVA
TRAINING TITLES

VIENNA, VA -- MindQ Publishing, Inc., a multimedia publisher which has won
critical praise for its "Internet: - A Knowledge Odyssey" CD-ROM tutorial
series, and Rapid Systems Solutions, Inc., a leading client/server systems
integrator and Java training provider, will jointly create a series of
CD-ROM titles aimed at instructing first-time Java programmers to learn
Java through the help of sophisticated, self-paced multimedia tutorials.

Under the terms of their agreement, Rapid Systems Solutions will provide
technical content and MindQ will create and distribute the CD-ROM titles.
The multimedia tutorials will be created using MindQ's highly advanced
authoring system, Odysseus, whose sophisticated visualization and
animation techniques enable a Java student to visually experience the
execution of a Java program, making the learning process faster and more
enjoyable.

The added ability to click on hotspots or text to retrieve in-depth
information makes this learning technique particularly well suited to
programmers.

The first CD-ROM title in the series will include:

 - interactive, in-depth training material with extensive
   animations, voice-overs and code examples
 - direct links to World Wide Web sites related to Java
   the latest Java development kit (JDK) from Sun
   Microsystems, Inc.
 - documentation for Java applications development
   "100 cool applets" -- to be used in new Java applet
   development
 - an update feature to keep pace with new
   developments and versions of Java

The first CD-ROM title in the series will be available in May, priced
competitively with conventional textbooks.
