ALR SIGNS MAJOR DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT IN VIETNAM

Irvine, CA, October 9, 1995 - Advanced Logic Research, Inc. (NASDAQ:AALR)
today announced a major strategic alliance in its continuing effort to
establish a significant presence in the largely untapped Vietnamese
marketplace. On October 8th, ALR International Pte Ltd., ALR's Asia
Pacific subsidiary, signed a distribution agreement with The Company For
Development of New Products and Technology Ltd. (DPT Co. Ltd.), one of
Vietnam's largest distributors.

A seven-year-old company, DPT is a primary source of computer hardware for
the Vietnamese government. ALR intends to target this influential market
sector with its award-winning multiprocessor systems and Rack- Mountable
server technology. DPT also has an established presence in the real estate
and banking industries, providing two additional markets for ALR's
client/server technology.

"This alliance is a natural step for ALR," states Dominic Heng, Managing
Director of ALR International. "Over the last couple of years, our offices
in Singapore have been watching the economic development in Vietnam and we
believe the information technology market there will grow rapidly in the
coming years. This new partnership with DPT will help us secure a solid
foothold in Vietnam, allowing us to leverage our position as a substantial
player in the marketplace."

ALR initially plans to focus its sales efforts in Hanoi, the capital of
Vietnam. As the Vietnamese market expands, the company intends to move
into other major population centers, particularly Ho Chi Minh city. A
sales presence in this emerging business center could help launch ALR into
a number of promising new markets, including the developing corporate and
retail sectors. "With yearly computer sales exceeding 75 million dollars
(US), a population of 73 million, and a rapidly expanding market, Vietnam
presents a tremendous opportunity for ALR," explains Genny Ortegon, Vice
President of Marketing for ALR. "And with our proven quality and advanced
engineering, we feel that we also have a chance to be a very positive
contributor to Vietnam's economic and technological growth."

Advanced Logic Research Inc. is an industry leader in the design,
manufacture, marketing and support of computer systems targeted at the
client/server and desktop markets. ALR's comprehensive portfolio of
upgradeable and affordably-priced products includes sophisticated
multiprocessor network servers, high-performance workstations, PC

PCs and employs approximately 470 people worldwide. Advanced Logic
