MICRO EXPRESS INTRODUCES 100-MHz DX4 VL-LOCAL BUS SYSTEM

Santa Ana, CA, January, 1995....In a move that continues to bring the price
down for powerful local-bus PCs, Micro Express introduces the
MicroFLEX-VL/100, an energy-efficient PC offering local-bus graphics and a
100-MHz CPU speed. Upgradable to Pentium technology, the MicroFLEX-VL/100
is available for only $1899, including a high-quality 15" monitor, 16-MB
of RAM and a 540-MB fast hard disk drive.

Energy saving is accomplished with the user-controllable "Green" AMI BIOS,
putting the CPU, hard disk and monitor into a sleep mode after a specified
period of lack of use. The BIOS also offers password protection and
selectable shadowing of both system and video BIOS. A CMOS clock-calendar
is included, as are built-in diagnostics.

The base configuration for the system includes: 16-MB of RAM; 540-MB hard
disk drive; 256K of RAM cache; a VL video card with 1-MB of on-board RAM;
15" non-interlaced monitor; a 1.44-MB 3-1/2" floppy disk drive; mini-tower
case; 101-type keyboard; a mouse; DOS 6.22; Windows 3.11; and
self-teaching Windows tutorial software.

For an additional $25 each, PFS:WindowWorks Version 2 and PFS:Publisher for
Windows will be bundled with the system.

A VESA (VL) video accelerator card is included to enhance Windows
performance. Additional performance enhancement results from zero
wait-state operation. High-performance graphic displays are viewed on the
excellent Micro Express FM-590 15" non-interlaced Super VGA color
monitor.

The MicroFLEX-VL/100 is shipped in a mini-tower case, measuring 7.1"[W] x
14.6"[H] x 18.25"[D]. The case has provision for three accessible 5-1/4"
drives, one accessible 3-1/2" drive, two internal 3-1/2" drives and one
internal 5-1/4" drive. The proprietary motherboard has eight expansion
slots, including three VL slots and five 16-bit ISA slots. Up to 64 MB of
RAM is supported on the motherboard.

The motherboard includes a switchable voltage regulator for either 3.3-V or
5-V CPUs. This allows you to use any CPU, regardless of its voltage
requirement.
