17-inch Digital Corporate Grade Display Ships

Value Price Point aimed at Resellers & End Users Alike

Atlanta, GA, June 9, 1995 - SAMPO Technology, Inc., manufacturer of
AlphaScan Corporate Grade Displays, announced today that a new 17-inch
display, the AlphaScan 17mx, is now available for shipment to the
distribution channel. "The 17mx represents the beginning of a new
generation of displays for SAMPO," said Norman Dybowski, Director of Sales
and Marketing for SAMPO Technology. "Our design team listened to the
demands of consumers and designed a 17-inch product with some great
features: a larger viewable area than weve ever had before in the 17-inch
product category [16.0 inches diagonal measure]; a sleek, more compact
cabinet; digital controls that users have realized are more than just a
nice extra feature; and a cost that will make consumers rule out
analog-controls [thumbwheels] in a similar price category."

On the issue of future introductions and new technology, Dybowski indicated
that implementation of DDC 2A/B is already underway for new SAMPO products
and that some other major announcements will be coming in the September
time-frame.

The AlphaScan 17mx multi-frequency display has a MSRP of $ 699 and supports
PC resolutions including 1280 x 1024 @ 65Hz; 1024 x 768 @ 86Hz; 800 x 600
@ 104Hz; 640 x 480 @ 120Hz. Other features include .28mm dot pitch, flat
square Hitachi CRT, Extended Digital Controls, Energy Star and MPR II Low
Emissions compliance, Edge to Edge Video (video card resolution
dependent), PC and Mac-compatible [maximum Mac resolution of 1152 x 882 @
75Hz] and worldwide standards certifications. The AlphaScan 17mx, like all
SAMPO displays, comes complete with a 2 year parts and labor warranty
(including CRT).

Authorized SAMPO Distributors expected to carry the AlphaScan 17mx include
the following: Blue Ash Electronics; Crescent Computers; Gates/Arrow;
Globelle; I.E.T.; Ingram Micro; K-Tech Solutions; Leadman Electronics;
Marshall Industries; Merisel Canada; Pioneer Express, Pony Computers and
