ViewSonic and Optiquest Join Forces

WALNUT, CA-- ViewSonic Corporation, one of the world leaders in the
computer monitor industry, and Optiquest, a major supplier of monitor and
UPS products, have just announced a strategic alliance. Under this
partnership, the two companies will unite their sales and marketing
efforts in order to provide the market with a diverse range of products
for all applications and budgets.

ViewSonic, a major force in the market since it was founded in 1990, is
recognized as the price/performance leader in the monitor field, with
their monitors consistently winning prestigious awards and editorial
accolades. At fall 1994 Comdex in Las Vegas, the company announced their
commitment to multimedia with the introduction of speakers and the first
in a line of multimedia monitors. Under consideration is the addition of
video cameras to their existing product line, plus preparations are under
way to phase in their revolutionary PerfectFlat CRT in mid-1995.

Optiquest monitors have also won numerous awards and are a favorite of
system integrators and value conscious consumers. Due to their 100%
"green" product line, the company was recently recognized by the EPA as a
1994 outstanding partner. The Optiquest product line exceeds the EPA's
Energy Star requirements.

With this new alliance, optiquest monitors will become the value line of
ViewSonic, and they will undoubtedly benefit from the considerable
marketing efforts and brand-awareness of the respected ViewSonic name.
Optiquest monitors will now be referred to as "Value Line Monitors by
ViewSonic". Their successful UPS product line will continue to be marketed
under the Optiquest banner with plans pending for new competitive
positioning.

Company management believes this strategic alliance will open new
opportunities by allowing more focused product positioning within the
market. Jerry Kanaly, Vice President of Operations and CFO for ViewSonic
states, "The ViewSonic name is well recognized in the market and
represents a respected level of quality and support. By positioning
Optiquest as our value line, we are making it clear that we're providing
the same ViewSonic quality and support for systems integrators and other
cost conscious customers."

James Chu, founder and President of the corporation adds, "By combining our
sales and marketing efforts we believe we can better utilize our internal
resources and provide better service to our channel partners. And by
combining our product lines we are providing a well defined line of
quality products and support to our customers."
