CD-ROM DRIVE ATTACHES TO PRINTER PORT

September 14, 1992 -- Micro Solutions continues its tradition of leading
the way in cutting edge technology by introducing the backpack CD-ROM
parallel port drive. The new CD-ROM backpack drive is an external device
that requires no card for installation. Backpack is compatible with any PC
machine (including portables), that has a standard parallel port. It
requires DOS 3.1 or higher.

The backpack CD-ROM drive is easy to install; plug the drive into the
printer port and run the installation program. It requires no interface
cards because the data transfers go through the printer port. The backpack
drive has a printer port to enable a printer or another backpack to be
attached. Backpack comes with an 8K device driver and includes 128K of
cache memory in the drive.

The backpack CD-ROM drive is easy to load and no cartridge is required. It
comes equipped with a built-in audio circuit including headphone and line
output jacks. The drive weighs under five pounds and measures 2.5
inches(h) x 5.75 inches(w) x 10 inches(l). Retail price is targeted at
$575.00.

The backpack CD-ROM drive offers endless opportunities for both the home
entertainment and educational markets. Backpack also fills a need for
computer professionals who require massive information storage at their
fingertips. It couldn't be easier to transport or share this information
between computers, both at home and at the office.

Initial shipments of the backpack CD-ROM drive will begin in November.
Backpack is also available in diskette, hard drive, and tape backup
formats. For the location of your nearest dealer, contact Micro Solutions
