For Immediate Release

Amiga's Relationship With Corel a Great Success!

Snoqualmie, WA, April 1, 2000 - Amiga Incorporated, is pleased to announce that its new multi-media consumer interface is well supported by Corel LINUX OS and other Corel applications including the newly released WordPerfect Office 2000 for Linux.

Amiga's multi-media consumer interface runs extremely smooth and fast on Corel LINUX OS, and the compatibility between these great products has provided Linux developers with a new and exciting way to create incredible multi-media titles, and games for Linux.

"Amiga pioneered the creation of multi-media, and easy to use graphical interfaces 20 years ago, and today begins the path of the reintroduction of a legend. The New Amiga is the creation and embrace of leading technologies and combining them with the 20 years of experience in multi- media development environments," said Bill McEwen, president and chief executive officer of Amiga. "Corel has leading products within their categories, and we are excited about their supporting Amiga towards the future."

"Linux developers now have choices when it comes to leading edge applications," added McEwen.

"Corel is dedicating extensive resources to develop Linux, and receiving such a positive endorsement based on Amiga's experience with our products is tremendous," said Dr. Michael Cowpland, president and chief executive officer of Corel Corporation. "Corel takes pride in producing quality products, and we are thrilled to provide our Corel LINUX OS to Amiga's world-class systems. We look forward to working with Amiga as they continue developing products and technology for current and future computing devices which are focused on making computers and the Internet a natural part of everyday life."

Corel and Amiga first announced they were working closely to support the new Amiga Operating Environment in July 1999. The two companies formed a new relationship to ensure that Corel's award-winning software applications were supported on Amiga's new line of products. Corel and Amiga continue to discuss possible future alliances.

There will be full support for the existing install base of Amiga users, and more announcements will be forthcoming about the current Amiga and the next generation of those machines.
