Fremont, CA -- May 15, 1995 -- ETC Computer, Inc., the leading manufacturer
of 9- and 10-inch color specialty monitors, is introducing its new line of
10-, 14-, 15- and 17-inch analog capacitive touch-screen monitors. Each
new touch-screen color monitor comes complete with an analog capacitive
touch panel, mouse driver, controller and cables, VGA and SVGA resolution
and an unlimited color display. The monitors are available immediately in
quantity beginning at a list price of $799.

Kent Huang, president of ETC, said "ETC's new touch-screen color monitors
are ideal for fingertip applications requiring a lot of contact. They are
the solution for any OEM, integrator or applications from point-of-sale,
banking and ATM machines, airports, kiosks and games to light industrial
usage where quantities of reliable touch-screen products are needed
without the complicated do-it-yourself conversion kits, high prices and
long lead times. In addition to being priced at 40 percent less than
competitive models, our touch-screen monitors are the only monitors on the
market to feature a two-year warranty."

ETC's capacitive touch-screen monitors feature up to 270 touch points per
second at 19.2K baud communication rate, a light transmission rate of 85%
at 550 nm, greater than 20 million touches in any one location, and is
supported on Windows, DOS, Windows NT, OS/2, MAC, UNIX and X-Windows. The
controller power is supplied from the monitor, keyboard or a wall-mount
unit and is factory calibrated with an accuracy rate of +/- 1%.

The monitors are available at the following single quantity list prices:
VM-10T (10-inch) at $999; VM-14T (14-inch) at $799; VM-15T (15-inch) at
$1,099; and VM-17T (17-inch) at $1,599.
ETC's touch-screen monitors are factory installed on ETC's line of
high-quality, ViewMagic color monitors which feature high-resolutions and
clarity even in low-light conditions. The screen, available with a
polished or anti-glare surface, is coated with ClearGuard
(transmission-improving protective glass overcoat) and is easily cleaned
with water, isopropyl alcohol, or similar cleaners.

ETC, the dominant provider of large quantities of small-screen color and
monochrome monitors for specialty applications, also offers a full line of
ViewMagic 14-, 15- and 17-inch high-performance color monitors, all
featuring convenient front-panel controls. ViewMagic monitors are designed

Apple Macintosh II systems. Many include innovative features such as
on-screen display of adjustment parameters for color-emissions guidelines
and all meet the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Energy Star
guidelines for low power consumption.
