FILERUNNER IS ONE OF THE TOP SOFTWARE PROGRAMS OF 1993

McMurray, PA, March 1, 1993...FileRunner from MBS Technologies, Inc. has
been named a finalist for two awards being given by the Software
Publishers Association (SPA) in 1993.

FileRunner was voted a finalist in the Best Personal Productivity Program
category of the 1993 SPA Excellence in Software Awards. The members of the
SPA vote for winners of the Excellence in Software Awards.

FileRunner was also voted a finalist in the 1993 SPA Critics' Choice
Awards, Business section, based on votes from leading industry
journalists. The final ballot includes the top 5 (or more if ties
occurred) products from the large number of products nominated (521). Such
luminaries of the computer world as Bill Machrone of PC Magazine, Cary Lu
of MacWorld, Phillip Robinson of Knight-Ridder, Larry Loeb of Byte, Mary
Eisenhart of Micro Times, Heather Clancy of Computer Reseller News, Peggy
Watt of DBMS, Ed Baig of US News & World Report, Ed Bott of PC Computing,
and John Zilber of Corporate Computing will decide which software products
are the best of the best in the Critics' Choice Awards.

FileRunner was nominated because it is the best way to move files from your
office to your home to your notebook/laptop or even networked computers.
It is the only product on the market that has the Overwrite Safeguard
feature, which detects when a file has been changed on more than one
computer.

Reviews of FileRunner in the computer press have been consistently
positive, complimentary and enthusiastic. On May 11, 1992, PC Week said,
"FileRunner ...makes life easier for busy professionals whose work goes
where they do ...eliminates the tedious task of transferring information
from one machine to another through serial cables or manually copying
files onto a floppy ...straightforward to use and offered many useful
features ...successfully updated files in the machines PC Week Labs test.
In fact, the process was so simple that PC Week Labs did not have to open
the manual." In July of 1992, PC Magazine stated, " ...FileRunner can save
you plenty of time and aggravation when you need the right file in the
right place at the right time." In August 1992, Computer Buying World
printed, "Wouldn't it be nice if each time you saved a file on your office
system, you could wave a magic wand to synchronize the files on all your
other computers? ...your PC at work, your home system and your notebook
...eliminating confusion and the risk of data loss. Technology hasn't
advanced to the magic wand level yet, but MBS Technologies has come close
with FileRunner ... Using FileRunner has made a believer of me. Once set
up, it simplifies and speeds a tricky job." These are just a few examples
of the press response to FileRunner.

"It is gratifying to be nominated for these awards," says Bernee D. L.
Strom, president of MBS Technologies, Inc. "These nominations support the
response of the users who have purchased FileRunner. In fact, most of the
calls we get to our technical support line are made to thank us for having
developed this program and put it on the market. FileRunner fills a need
for computer users and is the first of a new class of file transfer and
synchronization utility software programs. The editors agree as well.
Reviews in the computer press of FileRunner are universally positive.
Users want and need to synchronize their computers. "

The FileRunner programs, Mac and DOS versions, are the flagship products of
MBS Technologies, Inc. The company, founded by Bernee D. L. Strom and
Martin M. Batt in 1991, publishes computer software that improves the
productivity of users in today's multicomputer environment.
