--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


   o 16-Mbyte entry packages at old 8-Mbyte entry package price.
	
   o Price reductions in existing 16-Mbyte and 32-Mbyte packages.
     ($7,000 to $14,000 reductions for 3/470 - for the 3/480 even more!)
	  
   o Reductions for 16-Mbyte & 32-Mbyte memory and 892-Mbyte drive options.


New Low Cost 16-Mbyte Entry Packages
------------------------------------

The existing 8-Mbyte entry packages have been replaced by identical
16-Mbyte packages WITH NO price increase.  Double the memory without
any increase in cost to the customer.

If would like to take advantage of these changes for an existing order
contact your salesrep.

Price Reductions for Existing 16-Mbyte and 32-Mbyte Packages
------------------------------------------------------------
Prices for 3/470 and 3/480 workstations and servers have been reduced
anywhere from $7,000 (for existing 3/470 16-Mbyte packages) to $24,000
(for the most configured 3/480 32-Mbyte Server).

Price Reductions for Memory and Drive Options
---------------------------------------------

In addition, the 16-Mbyte and 32-Mbyte memory options have been reduced
dramatically.  The 16-Mbyte option has been reduced to $10,000 - a 33%
reduction, while the 32-Mbyte option has been reduced to $14,000 - a
42% reduction.  Also, the 892-Mbyte SMD drives have reduced prices.
These new prices reflect list price reductions of greater than 30%.
