PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


                  Rhode Island Soft Systems, Inc. announces:
                        'Customized Desktop Services'


Rhode Island Soft Systems has just announced a new line of services for
Microsoft Windows 3.1 users.  These two new services can help increase
productivity and advertise a business to both employees and customers alike,
with little or no effort.  These new services are listed below:


Custom Screen Savers 

  Rhode Island Soft Systems can create a custom screen saver that displays a
  company logo or other ideas that capture the essence of one's business.  Most
  marketing savvy companies realize that their logo can be their most important
  asset.  Instead of leaving either their own (or a customer's) screens
  displaying some random data screen, they should let the computer be a "silent
  salesman" and promote their logo!  The animation in these custom screen
  savers can range from simple to very complex.  Other applications include:

  * OEM Bundling - Businesses that ship computers with Microsoft Windows
    pre-loaded can have their own custom screen saver pre-loaded also, and
    automatically display their logos for customers -- the ultimate marketing
    tool!
  * In House Corporate Use - Display one's own company logo on in-house
    systems.  Also excellent for remote "field offices," showrooms, etc.  where
    customers may see the computer.  A corporate logo is a much more useful
    subliminal salesman than a data screen!
  * Premiums - Use these screen savers as a give-away to potential customers to
    spread one's business presence, or as a special promotion.  The
    possibilities for a custom screen saver, as a premium, are boundless.  This
    computer software can be given cheaper than most custom logo "trinkets"
    such as key chains and mugs.


TrueType Signature Service

  Rhode Island Soft Systems can now create a TrueType font that contains a
  person's own signature and initials.  As with all TrueType fonts, these
  signatures and initials are fully scalable and may be used in any application
  supporting the use of TrueType fonts.  Productive uses include:
  
  * Allow secretaries to type memos and letters and have the ability to apply
    the boss' signature as appropriate.
  * Add signature(s) and/or initials to memos and print them directly to the
    printer eliminating the need to sign the document later and fumble with the
    copy machine if more than one copy is required.
  * No more cutting and pasting signatures onto the bottom of documents for
    making copies.
  * Multiple copies can be printed without signing each one individually.
  * This can help increase productivity in the workplace or at home with no
    learning curve required -- it's a true, immediate productivity tool.


Cost     Custom screen savers are priced on an individual basis, based upon
         quantity, number of screen saver modules ordered, complexity, etc.
         Please call for additional information.  
         The base price for a signature TrueType font is $75.  Add $20 for
         initials also.  Quantity discounts are available.  Contact RISS for
         specifications, details, and instructions.
