PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS

Digital's InfoServer 1000 product family provides the easiest-to-use
plug-and-play solution in the industry for CDROM serving. The new packaged
systems designed for CDROM serving -- the InfoServer LA CD, InfoServer
Librarian, and InfoServer VXT -- incorporate Digital's new RRD43,
double-speed, high quality CDROM drives. Digital's InfoTower expansion
cabinet will also incorporate the RRD43 drives.

The InfoServer LA CD includes one tabletop InfoServer 1000, a tabletop RRD43
double-speed CDROM reader, InfoServer kernel software with Disk Function
Access enabled, and an OpenVMS Consolidated Distribution Software CDROM kit.

An additional enhancement of the InfoServer LA CD package is the inclusion
of Digital's Consolidated Distribution CD Set (CDDS). OpenVMS users will
automatically receive all of Digital's operating system and layered product
software on a set of CDROMs with the purchase of each InfoServer LA CD. The
special pricing on this packaged set makes the InfoServer LA CD a very
attractive way to provide software and software updates for your client
systems.

The InfoServer Librarian comes in two variants, one with four CDROM drives
and one with seven CDROM drives. All the CDROMs are double-speed RRD43
drives. The InfoServer Librarian mounts an InfoServer 1000 with the devices
in a lockable InfoTower cabinet. InfoServer kernel software with Disk
Function Access enabled comes factory installed.

The InfoServer VXT package includes a hard disk along with the tabletop
InfoServer 1000 and also comes in two variants, one with a tabletop CDROM
reader and one without. The configuration with the CDROM reader includes the
RRD43 drive.

The InfoTower CDROM expansion cabinet also comes in two variants, one with
four CDROM drives and one with seven. Both variants now incorporate the
double-speed RRD43 drives.
