ST. LOUIS, MO – June 29, 2003 -- INDUCOMP announces its new HURRICANExtreme™ industrial computer.

The HURRICANExtreme™ industrial computer was created to directly compete with the 3M Dynapro ET3250 and 3M Dynapro ET3255 industrial computers.

Earlier in the year 3M Dynapro announced to its customers that last call for ordering the ET 3250 and ET 3255 would be April 30, 2003. Speaking to one of the INDUCOMP’s marketing team he said “The exit of the 3M Dynapro industrial computers from the market would not make a major marketing impact on our pursuit of supplying a rugged PC computer to the Oil and gas and OEM manufacturing industries. However it’s always nice to have a competitor roll over at the time of announcing a new product”.

The HURRICANExtreme™ will come standard with a bright 15.0”, 18.0” or 20.0” color TFT LCD screen with NFI (Near Field Imaging) touch screen. 800Mhz VIA C3 low heat processor, 20 Gig hard drive, 128mb RAM (up to 1 Gig), optional Compact Flash socket and PCMCIA slot for wireless radio applications, onboard 10/100 Ethernet, 3 Serial ports, USB, Parallel port, keyboard and mouse ports. Each unit will have one PCI slot for additional cards. Each unit can be ordered with various Barcode Scanner options.

The rugged enclosure adheres to NEMA 4X standards and is constructed of cast aluminum. The enclosure is built for high heat harsh environments and cold environments.

The HURRICANExtreme™ will support Linux and all Microsoft operating systems. The unit will support legacy systems with an optional emulation program that can be run on all OS systems. The HURRICANExtreme™ will support 3270, 5250, VTXXX emulation, terminal services and Citrix protocols.
