SyDOS INTRODUCES THE EXECUTIVE CD 
The Professional Multimedia and Photo CD-ROM Solution

BOCA RATON, FL (June 29, 1993) SyDOS, a division of SyQuest Technology and
leader in the removable storage industry, announced today the addition of
a new member to its CD-ROM product line. The Executive CD joins the SyDOS
Personal CD (low cost parallel port solution for ease of installation and
use with notebooks and laptops), and other SyDOS state-of-the-art family
of removable cartridge disk drives.

The Executive CD is an external CD-ROM drive which is MPC Compliant and
Kodak Photo CD (Multisession) Compatible and is ideal for business and
personal use. The Executive CD combines low cost with high performance and
high quality to provide an external CD-ROM drive that supports both simple
and sophisticated multimedia CD-ROM applications.

The Executive CD's high-speed interface complies with the Multimedia (MPC)
standards and supports advanced multimedia graphics, audio and full-motion
videos. It is also compatible with Kodak Photo CD (Multisession) disks and
comes with Kodak Photo CD Access software allowing the user to view, crop
and work with photo CD images. The Executive CD can be used with virtually
any DOS- or Windows-based desktop PC.

"The Executive CD is ideal for business and personal use combining low cost
with high performance that supports both simple as well as sophisticated
multimedia CD-ROM applications," notes Linda Haury, SyDOS vice president
of marketing.

"The Executive CD is a natural complement to SyDOS' Personal CD. The
Executive CD with High Performance PC-bus interface card connects directly
to the bus of the computer system while the Personal CD with its fixed
parallel port makes it easy for users of notebooks and laptops who don't
have an available slot in their computers. Now the notebook and laptop
users have a CD-ROM solution in the Personal CD while the desktop user who
demands MPC compliance and Photo CD have a similar low cost, high
performance CD solution in the Executive CD" adds Haury.

Software Distribution Made Easy

Because many software applications are becoming too large and impractical
for floppy disks, CD-ROM technology is rapidly gaining in popularity among
software publishers for the distribution of software applications and
data. The Executive CD allows the user to utilize software distributed on
the CD-ROM format and is more efficient than installing numerous floppy
disks. It also affords the user increased memory capacity over their PC's
resident hard drive.

Provides Professionals Unlimited Multimedia Applications

The Executive CD affords the professional user access to virtually
thousands of multimedia titles including graphic applications, reference
libraries, clip art libraries, full motion video and audio packages. The
Executive CD along with the Kodak Photo CD technology can be used to
produce impressive professional business presentations, multimedia
publishing, image data bases, as well as digital slide shows and photo
albums that allow you to view, crop and work with photo CD images.

Complete Package and Competitively Priced

With a suggested list price of $550, the Executive CD provides high
performance with the added benefits of increased storage and portability
at a reasonable cost. The Executive CD is top-loading for easy CD access,
eliminating the requirement for a special caddy which can be easily
damaged or misplaced. It comes complete with the CD-ROM drive, Kodak Photo
CD access software, high-performance PC-bus interface card, easy-to-use
installation software, cabling, step-by-step instructions, and a full
l-year warranty.

The Executive CD also offers the user the option of digital stereo sound by
simply plugging headphones or speakers (available separately) into the
auxiliary stereo jack on the back of the unit. In addition, special
software lets the user select and play individual audio tracks.
