Frontier Technologies' SuperTCP Suite 96 Automatically  Supports Windows 95, 
Windows NT, And Windows 3.1  In A Single Package
Award-Winning SuperTCP Suite 96 Is Designed For Effortless OS Migration


Mequon, WI -- December 18, 1995 -- Frontier Technologies announced today an 
innovative licensing and packaging scheme for its new SuperTCP Suite 96 product 
line.  Frontier Technologies is the first to provide a full-featured 
OneCD-OneLicense-OnePrice  TCP/IP solution designed to ease corporate c
ustomers' migration to 32-bit Windows operating systems throughout 1996 and 
beyond.

SuperTCP Suite 96 is the next generation of  Frontier Technologies' 
award-winning SuperTCP family of  products.  SuperTCP Suite is the two-time 
winner  of         Communications Week's MAX Award, Data Communications' 
Tester's Choice, and LAN Magazine's Product of  the Year.  Super TCP Suite is a
lso the exclusive winner of Motorola's MOTSan Gold Certificate of  Excellence, 
surpassing all other TCP/IP products tested.  In addition, SuperTCP Suite has 
won InfoWorld's Buyer's Assurance Seal, Mier Communication's "Networks As 
Advertised", PC Magazine's Editor's Choice Award (both U.S. and U
K.), PC User's Lab's Recommended Product (U.K.), and SunWorld Online's 
Reviewer's Choice.  In the October 1995 issue of  SunWorld Online, SuperTCP 
Suite outperformed all ten other TCP/IP products tested in FTP file transfer    
times and NFS transmission times.

Frontier's award-winning Super TCP Suite 96 is an integrated solution that 
turns PCs into full members of the corporate network utilizing the TCP/IP 
multi-platform communications protocol. With SuperTCP Suite 96, users can 
access and share data  anywhere on their internal network and the 
Internet using SuperTCP's four dozen applications which provide Network 
Communications, including the Network File System (NFS), Internet Information 
Management, mainframe and minicomputer Host Access, an X-Windows server, and 
comprehensive Network Administration.

OneCD-OneLicense-OnePrice

SuperTCP Suite 96 is provided on a single CD-ROM which includes both 16- and 
32-bit versions of the applications.  An intelligent installation program 
detects a PC's operating system -- Windows 95, NT, or 3.1 --  and automatically 
installs the appropriate version of SuperTCP Suite 96.

SuperTCP Suite 96 licenses are priced identically for all versions, and each 
license is valid for any version.  For example, a customer may have 100 PCs on 
the network running a mix of Windows 3.1, Windows 95 and Windows NT.  The 
customer knows that the mix will gradually change in coming months
, as the whole LAN migrates to Windows 95 and NT.  With Frontier's 
convenient licensing and packaging, the customer can purchase 100 licenses, and 
can install SuperTCP Suite 96 on every PC.  As each PC moves to a new operating 
system, the same license and same CD can be used to install the 32-bit versions 
of SuperTCP Suite.  

"Companies will migrate to Microsoft's newer operating systems over 1996 and 
beyond," according to John Teitgen, President of Frontier Technologies.  
"Businesses will continue to shift their mix of operating systems.  Frontier 
Technologies is taking the hassle out of that migration process."

Additional Installation Flexibility

In addition to supporting network migration, SuperTCP Suite 96 allows users to 
install from the single CD only those applications they choose to license.  The 
intelligent installation feature automatically installs the applications group 
licensed, ranging from SuperTCP Internet to SuperTCP/NFS t
o the complete SuperTCP Suite comprised of four dozen applications.

Availability

SuperTCP Suite 96 is available in mid December 1995, priced at $595 for a 
single user license. Components of  SuperTCP Suite 96 may be purchased 
separately.  Components are priced as follows:  SuperTCP Internet ($125),
