AGE SHIPS EVALUATION KITS FOR XOFTWARE ATX X WINDOW SOFTWARE SYSTEM FOR
EMBEDDED APPLICATIONS

SAN DIEGO, CA, September 7, 1993 -- AGE Logic, Inc. has announced the
availability of packaged evaluation kits for its new XoftWare ATX
(Advanced Technology Software) X Window software system, which includes a
multitasking executive, the XoftWare X11R5 server and X libraries,
selected local clients, XoftNet communications software, XoftBoot
ROM-based boot software, configuration software and utilities.

Evaluation kits are currently available to run on LSI LR33020 RacerX
Development Hardware. XoftWare ATX currently is available for MIPS-based
microprocessors, Intel i960, AMD29K, TI34020 Series and Motorola 88K
microprocessors.

"XoftWare ATX is an advanced X Window software solution for the embedded
application developer or X terminal manufacturer to build an MIT
X11R5-based system that can be optimized for the selected microprocessor
and specific display hardware," explained Peter J. Shaw, president and CEO
of AGE.

"AGE's objective is to provide as comprehensive a range of X Window
software tools as possible. XoftWare ATX is another important offering in
our program for developing strong strategic alliances with display
manufacturers and embedded applications developers," said Shaw.

XoftWare ATX provides the complete X11R5 server with extensions, an
embedded multitasking executive that has been optimized for a wide range
of microprocessor families, dynamic downloading of local clients, high
performance XoftNet networking software, local Window Manager support,
local client support, and local terminal emulation. In addition, XoftWare
ATX provides re-entrant libc and X libraries, optional X extensions, and
has been designed for easy configuration to support a full range of X
terminals and embedded applications.

XoftNet is AGE's implementation of the Internet protocols necessary to
handle the unique requirements of X Window server software. Included are
basic protocols ARP, IP, UDP, TCP, ICMP, and SL/IP. In addition, NFS
Client, TFTP and Telnet network applications are supported, as well as
SNMP, DNS, and BOOTP network services. The SNMP agent is MIB-II compliant
in accordance with RFC 1213.

An NFS client that allows the X server and local clients to access files
from any NFS server on the network is also incorporated into XoftWare ATX.
A simplified Ethernet driver, nvram, and video for booting ATX from a
network host is included as well. A XoftWare ATX processor may serve as a
console for host booting and running diagnostic through its terminal
emulation capability, operating as a simple ASCII terminal through the
serial line.

AGE expects to announce a packaged XoftWare ATX Software Developer's Kit
that includes all the code and documentation required to support X Windows
for embedded applications. Users of the developer's kit will be required
to obtain the appropriate compilers and tools for the selected
microprocessor from the silicon vendor or appropriate third party
sources.

AGE Logic, Inc., a privately owned corporation founded in 1984, is a
supplier of X Window System software that enables PCs, terminals,
workstations and embedded systems to access X applications residing on
Unix-based hosts. AGE has alliances with major silicon, terminal, and
