Internet Users Purchase Products in Two Minutes

In Farallon's New and Convenient On-Line Store

ALAMEDA, Calif., April 30, 1996 -- Farallon Computing, Inc., today
announced that it has developed one of the industry's first Internet
stores on its World Wide Web site: www.farallon.com. to more easily and
quickly offer its Internet connectivity and collaboration products to
Internet users. The total transaction time required is approximately two
minutes and Farallon offers customers the option of purchasing products
electronically with a credit card through Netscape Secure Forms (SSL) or
via the CyberCash Wallet.

Customers wishing to purchase products through the Netscape Secure Forms
SSL must be using the Netscape browser or any other browser that supports
the SSL standard. Purchasing products using the CyberCash wallet requires
customers to download the free CyberCash client software.

CyberCash enables electronic commerce by providing a safe, convenient and
immediate payment system on the Internet. The CyberCash Secure Internet
Payment System facilitates the purchase of goods and services on the
Internet by providing a secure environment for transactions between
consumers, merchants and their banks by processing them in real time and
passing authorization codes back to merchants. With CyberCash the Internet
is safe for instantaneous and spontaneous financial transactions.

"In choosing an overall merchant solution for Farallon, IS selected
CyberCash Secure Internet Payment Service for several reasons - maximum
security to the consumer, convenience and choice at the point of purchase,
and seamless integration with our back office functions," said Brooke
Hauch, director of MIS at Farallon. "The net result - two minutes in
Farallon's Internet store places product at the consumer's door in two
days."

The Internet Store gives Farallon the opportunity to reach Internet users
with special promotional pricing and convenient service to purchase its
popular Timbuktu Pro, Netopia ISDN Modem, and EtherWave products. The
Internet store is updated on a regular basis with Farallon's latest and
most popular products and services. Farallon products can also be
purchased from its numerous resellers, VARs, on-line resellers, mail order
partners and international distributors - all conveniently listed on the
Company's web site.

"As one of the first companies to have a web presence, we are proud to now
take that to the next level with the Internet store," said David Lewis,
director of marketing at Farallon. "We believe this offers the ultimate
convenience in shopping for Internet users."
