SyDOS and Corel Announce Joint Marketing Venture 
"SyDOS Personal CD and CorelDRAW"

BOCA RATON, FL (November 9, 1992) - SyDOS, a division of SyQuest
Technology, together with software distributor Corel Corporation, today
announced a joint marketing partnership to supply the lowest-cost
CD-ROM/CorelDRAW Bundle. The partnership allows SyDOS to sell its new
Personal CD CD-ROM product and CorelDRAW to the end user in one package.

Dr. Michael Cowpland, president and CEO of Corel Corporation comments, "In
response to the overwhelming growth in multimedia opportunities, Corel has
introduced CorelDRAW on CD-ROM, the only product of its kind currently
available on CD-ROM. SyDOS's CD-ROM bundle offers users a dynamic solution
to the increasing demand for multimedia applications."

Linda Haury, vice president of marketing for SyDOS, states, "The SyDOS
bundle provides an inexpensive way for users to harness the enormous
potential and value of CD technology. The Personal CD drive can be used to
access the hundreds of software titles now available. And with CD-Audio,
users can play their favorite compact discs directly from the computer."

According to industry trend-watcher DataQuest, over the next several years
CD-ROMs will grow by 86% and be the largest segment of optical drive
technology. And, within that segment, the greatest growth will be in the
home/small-office for software distribution.

The SyDOS Personal CD simply plugs into the parallel port of virtually any
DOS or Windows-based desktop, laptop or notebook system. There is no need
to remove the computer cover or change adapter cards. The integrated
high-performance pass-through Parallel Port Adapter allows the Personal CD
and printer to share a single parallel port simultaneously.

The SyDOS Personal CD will be sold both as a bundle with CorelDRAW and as a
"stand-alone" unit. In either case, the Personal CD includes a full
one-year warranty. The suggested list price of the Personal CD alone will
be $499, while the suggested list price of the SyDOS/Corel Bundle will be
$999. Pricing to the end user will be approximately $299 for the
stand-alone Personal CD and $499 for the Personal CD/CorelDRAW bundle.

In addition to the Personal CD, SyDOS offers a full line of Removable
Cartridge Disk Drives and Host Bus Adapter Kits. Drive subsystems are
available in 44MB and 88MB capacities, in internal, external and dual
configurations. Drives can be purchased separately without Host Bus
Adapters, or as a complete "one-box" solution called a "Value Pack." Host
Bus Adapter Kits include a Micro Channel Kit, Parallel Port Kit, High
Performance 16-Bit Kit and Enhanced Performance 16-Bit Kit, as well as a
Standard 8-Bit Kit. SyDOS also offers the PUMA line of low-cost 44MB and
88MB external removable cartridge disk drives.

Established in 1985 by Dr. Michael Cowpland, Corel Corporation is a leading
developer of graphics and SCSI software. CorelDRAW, Corel's
industry-leading graphics software package is currently available in nine
languages, and has won over 60 international awards from major trade
publications.

SyDOS is headquartered in Boca Raton, Florida, and is a division of SyQuest
Technology, headquartered in Fremont, California. SyDOS was formed to
distribute removable cartridge disk drives to the PC and compatibles
marketplace. SyQuest has shipped over 800,000 disk drives and over 3
