PowerQuest Announces "PartitionMagic"

Utility Shrinks/Expands/Moves/Converts Drive Partitions like Magic!

January, 10, 1995, Orem, Utah PowerQuest Corporation has announced
"PartitionMagic, a unique software utility that allows computer users to
dynamically shrink, expand, and move FAT and HPFS disk partitions while
keeping all files and data intact. Partition Magic also converts FAT
partitions into HPFS, which is of particular interest to OS/2 users.

"PartitionMagic is new technology, not a 'Me-Too!' product," said Eric J.
Ruff, President of PowerQuest Corporation. "Until now, computer users
could never move, resize, or convert disk partitions without resorting to
the tedious and time-consuming process of backing up all files and drives,
deleting and recreating partitions (which destroys all data), reformatting
the new partitions, and finally reinstalling the operating system and
restoring all the files. With PartitionMagic, you just click with the
mouse and wait a minute.

Ruff explains one simple use of PartitionMagic: "Imagine a user with a
400MB disk divided into two drives (C: and D:) of 200MB each. This
configuration, typical of many installations, is not optimal since any
free space is divided between the two partitions. With PartitionMagic, I
can shrink C: to eliminate its free space and then expand D: to combine
the free space into one much more usable block -- and this entire process
will take only a few clicks of the mouse and a few minutes of my time. I
don't have to back up any data, and I don't need to run FDISK or FORMAT!"

PartitionMagic for OS/2 will ship January 1995. Although PartitionMagic is
intended for OS/2 users, a 32-bit DOS executable will be included along
with the Native OS/2 version, so users can add or change partitions before
installing OS/2, or any operating system. PowerQuest is also preparing a
version of PartitionMagic for Windows 95. PartitionMagic's simple,
graphical user interface will be similar for OS/2, DOS, and Windows
users.

PartitionMagic will retail for $129.95. PowerQuest provides site-license
pricing for volume users and special quantity-bundle pricing for OEMs.

PowerQuest is offering a pre-release price of $69.95 for orders placed
before January 31, 1995. Orders may be placed through Indelible Blue at
