NEW YORK, June 24, 1992 - NCR announced today at PC Expo that they will
license GRiD Systems MS-DOS based pen software environment. According to
PEN PAL Associates, Inc., this agreement expands the buyer's options to
choose from a wide variety of platforms for developing vertical pencentric
applications.

Power PEN PAL is a complete, integrated, application development
environment for pen computers and runs on any 8086, 286 or 386 platform
which has been certified under PenRight!. This means that a PEN PAL
application can be developed for a wide variety of products today, and on
other hardware that becomes available in the future.

"We're pleased that developers can run PEN PAL developed applications
designed for NCR platforms, especially now, while there is tremendous
excitement about the potential of pen-based computing," said Charles W.
Ryle, vice president of Marketing at PEN PAL Associates Inc. "Buyers now
have additional choices of the hardware which best meets their own needs
in terms of power, screen size, and storage devices, while retaining the
ability to use PEN PAL to develop their applications. These advantages
will result in faster growth for the pen computer market."

PEN PAL and PenRight! are running on many pen computer platforms, from the
handheld 8086-based systems up through the high-end products, and are sold
to VARs, ISVs, and the corporate IS or MIS departments which are
developing internal software applications with today's hardware. According
to Mr. Ryle, the NCR/PenRight! agreement is an example of how
manufacturers are responding to the expanding vertical marketplace, which
will drive computer sales through 1992 and beyond.

Based in Los Altos, California, PEN PAL has developed two products for
pencentric application developers. Power PEN PAL, targeted at vertical
application developers, is available now and is marketed through OEM, ISV
and VAR channels at a list price of $995. Personal PEN PAL, aimed at the
pentop computer buyer, will be available September 1992 through
established software distribution channels, at a suggested list price of
$395.
