Abacus Concepts Announces StatView for Power Macintosh

Berkeley, CA--January 3, 1995--Abacus Concepts announced today it has
shipped its 100% native version of StatView for the Power Macintosh.
StatView is the best selling statistical software for Macintosh. StatView
lets scientists and researchers manage and analyze their data, then graph
and create presentations of their results all within a single application.
With StatView, researchers no longer need four separate
applications-spreadsheet, statistics, graphing and drawing--to complete
their work.

"The PowerPC processor technology offers tremendous performance
enhancements that are especially beneficial to our users," said Daniel S.
Feldman, Jr., President & CEO of Abacus Concepts. "The native version of
StatView gives users from 4 to 10 times performance improvement over 68040
systems, as well as an additional boost from the phenomenal floating point
speed of the PowerPC processor."

Will Scoggin, Executive VP Marketing points out, "With StatView, we have
taken the pain out of data analysis by integrating all the tools that
researchers need into a single, easy-to-use application. As a result,
Abacus Concepts has made data analysis accessible to a significantly wider
market than ever before. With Power Macintosh systems, Apple has delivered
incredible price/performance. Abacus Concepts has taken full advantage of
this power and delivered it to our users."

In addition to English, StatView 4.1 was simultaneously released in German,
French, and Japanese. StatView is a six-time winner of the Macworld World
Class Award for Best Statistics/Math Software and winner of the 1992
MacUser Editors' Choice Award for Best New Science/Engineering Product.
StatView also won the 1989 Australian Macworld World Class Award in the
same category, and the Icone d'Or in France.

StatView 4.1 retails for $595 and is available directly from Abacus
Concepts and from Ingram Micro, MacWarehouse and selected republishers and
dealers worldwide. Owners of StatView 4.0 can upgrade to version 4.1 for
$99.00. Abacus Concepts provides a 30-day money-back guarantee and free
technical support.
