Everex Announces Fast VL Versions of STEP Computers

FREMONT, CA--May 19, 1993 -- Everex Systems, Inc, as part of its
previously-announced plan to deliver high value-added systems and servers
to the market quickly, today announced immediate availability of its STEP
VL (VESA Local Bus) product line. This family of computers is designed to
speed processing of complex applications such as CAD/CAM/CAE and graphics,
and to take greater advantage of the power of Windows. The STEP VL systems
employ a unique BIOS which results in a 15% to 500% faster system speed
than competing products. Because the BIOS is customized by Everex, it is
fully utilized in every configuration, and the company can provide direct
support.

VL bus technology greatly improves system speed, eliminating delays caused
when traffic over the bus cannot keep up with the newest high performance
processors. The STEP VL systems are available in ISA and EISA versions.
Performance of the ISA version is typical for non-VL EISA systems, but at
the lower price typical of ISA. EISA systems from Everex employ a bus
management scheme which takes full advantage of VL technology to eliminate
overloading of the EISA bus.

"The introduction of the STEP VL family is the next step in the Everex
business plan, designed to improve the company's competitive position,"
commented Rick G Garian, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "Our
customers have told us they want VL products from Everex. We answered them
with these fast, reliable STEP systems, which are ready for delivery."

The STEP VL family of systems, which will be demonstrated at COMDEX May
24-27, is designed for flexibility and upgradability. The ISA version is
offered in a choice of slim, small and tower chassis, and the EISA version
in the small and tower chassis.

"No matter what configuration the customers need, there is a STEP VL
version to suit their performance requirements," said Chet Dayal, Product
Manager, STEP VL.

Everex Systems, Inc., headquartered in Fremont, California, designs,
manufactures and distributes network servers and personal computers,
available worldwide through dealers, VARs and distributors.
