ARTISOFT ANNOUNCES NEW LANTASTIC 
FOR NETWARE
Adds LANtastic's Peer-to-Peer Features and Resource 
Sharing to Novell's Netware

(TUCSON, Ariz. -- June 25, 1991) -- Artisoft announced today its new LANtasticª for 
NetWare¨ network operating system which will provide Novell¨ NetWare users with 
LANtastic's peer-to-peer features.  It is scheduled for release in August and will sell for 
$499 per network.

Artisoft's LANtastic for NetWare will run on top of Novell and require Novell's NetBIOS 
to operate.  It will allow programs, data, and peripherals such as printers, hard drives, tape 
backups, and CD ROMs to be shared resources among nodes on a Novell network by 
running under Novell's NetBIOS emulation.

"LANtastic for NetWare provides a low cost, easy-to-use solution to Novell users wanting 
the features, peripheral sharing, and flexibility of a peer-to-peer network," said Jack 
Schoof, Artisoft's President and CEO.  "It's an especially great value when compared to 
the simple hardware and software print server solutions on the market."

Novell users will be able to add printers (up to five per computer) to any computer on the 
network and share them with others while simultaneously working at that computer and 
maintaining connection to Novell's dedicated server.  Individuals, corporate workgroups, 
and even large departments will be able to overlay NetWare's centralized structure and 
administration to permit localized control and access to each others progams, data, and 
other shared resources.  

LANtastic for NetWare's e-mail feature will even allow NetWare users to have voice mail 
capability across the network by adding Artisoft's Sounding Boardª adapters.  The 
Sounding Board adapter is a low-cost, IBM compatible expansion adapter with telephone-
style handset that converts between audio/voice signals and a digital data stream.  It sells 
for $99 for ISA bus and $199 for Micro Channel.

Artisoft's LANtastic and other connectivity products have won 16 major industry awards 
over the past three years for their features, performance, ease of use, and low cost.
