Princeton,
NJ - April 18, 2000 - Dataram Corporation (NASDAQ: DRAM), a leading
supplier of advanced memory to the network server market, has begun
a significant expansion. Over the next year, a newly installed production
line, featuring a Panasonic high-speed chip mounter will contribute
to a doubling of production capacity and gains in precision. These
improved capabilities reinforce Dataram's leading position in the
advanced memory market.
Robert
Tarantino, chairman and CEO, noted, "We continue to experience strong
growth, and the outlook for our industry is bright. Our increasing
customer base includes Internet service providers, financial institutions,
large corporations, electronic contract manufacturers and systems
integrators. Their appetite for high capacity memory continues to
grow rapidly, driven by explosive increases in Internet activity.
Today's applications require bandwidth measured in thousands of
bits per second. Tomorrow's Internet will deliver services that
require network servers to handle bandwidth measured in millions
of bits per second. Servers must have ample memory to process transmissions
at these speeds. Memory is one of the most important components
of the internet."
Mark Maddocks,
CFO, stated, "We are pleased to announce this significant increase
in our production capacity. Investing in the future growth of our
business is the most profitable use of our shareholders' capital.
This expansion is a key element of our high-growth strategy."

Processor-Based Universal Mode SBC Using SENTINEL Bridge Chip
San Jose,
CA - April 25 - Force announced the CPCI-540 family of SPARC®
processor-based computers for the CompactPCI(r) environment featuring
the SENTINEL(tm) universal PCI-to-PCI bridge. The CPCI-540 offers
a fast and reliable platform for embedded Solaris®-based applications
that require compactness, multi-link IP networking capability and
redundant SCSI interfaces.
By
integrating SENTINEL technology with the second-generation 440 MHz
UltraSPARC-IIi processor, the CPCI-540 is the first solution that
offers the advantages of "Universal Mode" technology to embedded
Solaris applications. The CPCI-540 can run in any CompactPCI slot,
allowing a system to be populated with CPCI-540 boards. Hot-Swap
capability (PICMG spec. 2.1), which enables the board to be inserted
into or removed from an operating CompactPCI system, is another
key feature of the CPCI-540. The board family comes in one-, two-
and three-slot configurations with up to three Ultra SCSI controllers,
seven 100BaseT Ethernet controllers and 1,024 MBytes of DRAM. Prices
for the CPCI-540 start at US$4,000 with competitive pricing for
volume purchases. The CPCI-540 ships this month under Force's Early
Access Unit program, and volume shipments are scheduled for Q4 2000.
