New LG Electronics Monitors Bring Multimedia In Focus

Amplifier and speakers integrated into dazzling new color monitors
eliminate clutter of cords and cables, provide audio horsepower for
today's multimedia software titles.

NEW YORK, NY (June 20, 1995)--Adding a new dimension to multimedia
computing, LG Electronics U.S.A., Inc., formerly Goldstar, introduced
today two new multimedia color monitors with built-in audio systems. The
two monitors are designed specifically to make the most of today's
high-performance multimedia software titles.

"The multimedia industry is booming," said Bennett Norell, brand manager,
LG Electronics U.S.A Information Systems Product Division. "More than two
thirds of home computers sold in the final months of 1994 were
multimedia/CD-ROM equipped. We have always believed that this is the next
wave in computing. Our new monitors represent that trend and our
commitment to deliver the best quality products to an ever changing
computer industry."

New Multimedia Monitors

The new Goldstar multimedia monitors feature a built-in amplifier and pair
of stereo speakers. Integration of these audio components into the
monitors means that computer owners who want real stereo sound will no
longer need to install unsightly external speakers or further clutter
their work area with extra wires and power cables. Both models are also
equipped with convenient front-mounted I/8" earphone jacks for private
listening.

In addition, both new models feature a non-glare screen with .28mm dot
pitch and non-interlaced video display for maximum sharpness. The units
also come equipped with dust-busting anti-static screens and comply to MPR
II Low Radiation standards, as well as to energy-saving Energy Star DPMS
standards.

Multimedia Monitor 1535

Goldstar's new multimedia monitor model 1535 utilizes a 15-inch Flat Square
Tube--a 14-inch Viewable Image Size (VIS). The unit also features auto
synchronous VGA through 1280x1024 resolution. On-screen digital controls
include color adjustment, tilt, zoom, geometry and audio controls. Forty
video memories, including 33 user-definable ones, automate screen
adjustments for different applications and operating systems.

The model 1535 features a front-mounted microphone input jack. Rear-mounted
(RCA) jacks include microphone outputs, audio outputs, and audio inputs. A
plug-and-play device, the model 1535 complies to the new Windows '95 and
Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA) DDC2B and DDC2AB protocols,
making installation with compliant systems a breeze.

Goldstar's other multimedia monitor addition, model 1475, is a 14-inch flat
square tube--a 13.4-inch VIS. The unit features 640x350 through 1024x768
