FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Microway Contact: Ann Fried Chairperson Microway, Inc. Tel: 508-732-5555 annf@microway.com

Microway releases new 21264DP 833MHz Processor Cards with 8 MB DDR Cache. Significant Upgrade Path Offered for Current Users.

Plymouth, MA- May 25, 2002 - Microway, a leading manufacturer of custom configured Alpha-based Linux Beowulf Clusters and servers, today announced the release of their proprietary 21264DP daughtercards. The new product extends the 264DP platform to higher speed processors with larger and faster caches and supports both Linux and Compaq Tru64 UNIX. It contains 4 or 8 MB of DDR cache and yields significantly higher benchmarks than the 667 MHz version with 4 MB late write cache presently offered by typical Alpha vendors. It is used with Microway's 21264DP planar card. The 833 MHz cards are available for immediate shipping.

"As a respected leader in the Alpha HPC market, we understand the needs of customers for next generation product. This board was developed and manufactured at Microway's in-house SMT facility. It is the first of many advanced technology platforms we intend to manufacture internally, including Athlon and Pentium platform products." said Ann Fried, Chairperson of Microway. In October, Microway signed an agreement with API Networks to assume responsibility for servicing their current Alpha customer base in North and South America, Europe and Japan. Microway was chosen for their extensive technical expertise, demonstrated financial stability and over six years of experience with Alpha based systems.
