Everex Introduces the World's Fastest Minicartridge Tape Drive 
Excel 1G tape backup ensures network computing viability

PC Expo, New York--June 23, 1992--Everex Systems, Inc. today unveiled the
Excel 1G, a tape backup system with a data capacity of 566MB, 1.132GB in
compressed mode. Capable of data transfer at 34MB per minute, the Excel 1G
ranks as the fastest tape drive in its class. In the 3.5-inch, half-height
form factor, it is the tape drive with the largest capacity.

Tape backup is critical for today's corporate computing environment. With
the capacity and performance of Everex's Excel 1G, the risks inherent in
network computing are dramatically reduced. Everex has created a drive
with three times the throughput of DAT (Digital Audio Tape), at a much
lower cost, and with the intrinsic ruggedness of streaming tape.

"Storage is both an investment and a form of insurance. We allow you to
maximize both," said Charles Stokes, product manager for tape backup
systems. "We also provide a migration path from floppy-based products all
the way up to the Excel 1G, so that customers never lose their valuable
investment--data. "

The Excel 1G is the first in a series of minicartridge tape backup for
users with network management responsibilities or large CAD/CAM data
files. Everex achieved the large data capacities largely through its use
of the SCSI-2 bus and writing data in greater density on the new 900oe
data tape. In addition, the tape backup drive is supported by six major
software applications, with DOS, OS/2, Novell Netware, UNIX and other
operating system support.

The Excel 1G is now available as an internal model and lists for $1679. It
comes bundled with Gazelle Back-It 4 DOS and Windows, and the Adaptec 1510
SCSI-2 controller.

Everex Systems, Inc., a computer industry leader headquartered in Fremont,
California, designs, manufactures and distributes a complete family of
personal computers and peripherals. Everex products are distributed
through a worldwide dealer, VAR and distributor network. Everex is traded
