IDEK CUTS PRICE OF 21-INCH VISIONMASTER MONITORS

WARMINSTER, Pa. (April 11, 1994) -- IDEK Iiyama North America today
announced a $500 price cut on its entire line of full-featured 21-inch
VisionMaster monitors. Effective immediately, IDEK's new pricing puts the
suggested retail price of the monitors well below that of most
competitors.

IDEK's award-winning VisionMaster 21 line of monitors consists of the
MF-8621, MF-8521, MF-8421 and MF-8221. All monitors have a horizontal scan
rate of 24-85 kHz and a maximum resolution of 1600 x 1200 at 66 Hz. To
suit the needs of each user, IDEK offers units ranging in dot pitch and
cathode ray tube (CRT) anti-glare treatments. The entry-level monitor, the
MF-8221, has a .28 mm dot pitch and dark tint glass CRT glare treatment.
On the high end, the MF-8621 features a .26 mm dot pitch and A/R bonded
panel CRT glare treatment.

"We cut the price of our monitors by eliminating a distribution layer that
added 10- 15 percent to the cost, and simultaneously we've dramatically
increased sales in the Japanese market, increading production and reducing
our fixed cost per monitor" said Chuck Roessler, president of IDEK Iiyama
North America. "In Japan, we've moved from two percent market share to 31
percent; we currently have the best selling 17-inch monitor there. This
success reduces our costs to the benefit of the U.S. consumer."

IDEK VisionMaster 21 -inch monitors include the unique auto size, auto
contrast and auto power-down features which can be user selected or
disengaged. The infrared auto power-down function reduces monitor power
consumption to less than 6 watts. The monitors are Energy Star compliant.
