Santa Clara, CA...June 2, 1992...UMAX Technologies, Inc. (UTI), now offers
its 24-bit color scanner customers a free color display card that upgrades
8-bit color displays to 24-bit true color images. The company will bundle
its UC630 Flatbed Color Scanner with the MultimediaVGA 7900 color display
card from Genoa Systems Corporation at no extra charge.

"With our offering of the free color display card enhancement, our 24-bit
color scanners will now look as good as they are supposed to," said
Vincent Tai, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at UMAX. "This card
allows monitors with limited resolution to display the 16.8 million colors
the UC630 is capable of providing. What's remarkable is that some
companies charge upwards of $2000 for display cards that effect the same
color range."

Typically, 8-bit color display cards limit display images up to 256 colors.
Inherent in this limitation is a rough, jagged appearance on the screen
that leaves out fine details. Subtle color gradations are impossible to
achieve because 8 bits carry limited information.

Genoa's MultimediaVGA 7900 Graphics Card is the first PC add-on card that
offers 24-bit true color at an affordable price. This card is ideal for
multi-media professionals such as CAD designers, architects, and
post-production editors.

The MultimediaVGA 7900 color display card is designed for the PC
environment and is available with the UC630 Flatbed Color Scanner for
$1995.00. Also bundled with this package is Image-In Color image
processing software for PC or PS/2. The free color display card offer is
available from June 15 through August 15,1992.
