          TUCSON, AZ -- September 11, 1995) -- Artisoft, Inc.
          today announced the new LANtastic 32-bit Client that will 
          enable Artisoft customers to add Windows 95 PCs as full 
          clients to existing LANtastic networks.  The client software 
          will be available via the company's BBS, FTP server and World 
          Wide Web home page in mid-October, 1995.  The software will be 
          provided free of charge to all current users of LANtastic, 
          LANtastic Power Suite and Simply LANtastic(TM) networks.
     
          "Our small and medium business customers tell us they will 
          generally not move rapidly to Windows 95, and will instead 
          gradually add Windows 95 machines to their current 
          environments," said Bill Peterson, Vice President of 
          Worldwide Marketing.  "Our new LANtastic 32-bit Client 
          allows them to integrate Windows 95 machines to their 
          LANtastic networks at their own pace, while protecting their 
          existing investment in DOS, Windows and OS/2(R) platforms," 
          he said.
     
          "Artisoft is on the right track for taking the next step in 
          the Windows operating system evolution," said David 
          Goudreau, Vice President of MIS/Operations for Financial 
          Institutions Marketing Company, Inc. in Milwaukee, 
          Wisconsin.  "For businesses like mine running both DOS and 
          Windows applications, the LANtastic 32-bit Client is a smart 
          way to incorporate Windows 95 machines into our system.  It 
          appears that Artisoft has once again provided a product that 
          has both ease of use and powerful connectivity," he added.
     
          The LANtastic 32-bit Client for Windows 95 is designed for 
          users who are adding Windows 95 PCs to their LANtastic 
          network or who are migrating existing DOS- and Windows-based 
          LANtastic workstations to Windows 95.  It will provide 
          LANtastic network users with fully functional client access 
          to their network resources.  In addition, users can gain 
          multiplatform connectivity to Novell(R) NetWare(R), 
          Microsoft NT(TM), IBM(R) LAN Server, Microsoft Windows for 
          Workgroups and LANtastic networks and resources.
