"Contour Design Announces Introduction of the Contour G-Riser™"

Windham, New Hampshire, 16 Oct 00 - Contour Design, Inc. announces the introduction of its innovative Contour G-Riser(TM).

In order to solve the dust and heat problem AND to complement Apple's G3/G4 mini-tower design, Contour Design demonstrated a prototype of this product at MacWorld 2000 in New York City in July 2000. It will begin shipping this November in response to the overwhelmingly positive market reaction!

Appropriately named the Contour G-Riser, this functionally attractive addition to Contour's popular family of Macintosh accessory products is designed to meet the needs of G3 and G4 Mini-tower owners who are concerned with potential degradation of system reliability. Such problems can result from floor-mounted models ingesting dust, dirt, and other foreign objects through the base of the system via the cooling fan.

"I've had a chance to utilize a prototype copy of the G-Riser. I believe it is an outstanding accessory to complement the G-3 or G-4 Tower." says Alan Dworkin, Apple Solution Expert. "This is a product that I have no hesitation in recommending to any of my clients."

Features of the Contour G-Riser include:

· Raising the G4 Mini-tower approximately four (4) inches above the floor or other surface on which it rests.
· Being so elevated significantly reduces dust and dirt uptake by the G4's cooling system.
· Providing sufficient space beneath the raised G4 for operation of a vacuum cleaner brush.
· Enhancing the airflow should result in cooler operation and greater system reliability and longevity.
· Looking good - the attractive design aesthetically complements the G4's style.
· Being of high quality and sturdily made, it will support the G4 Mini-tower safely and securely.

At the MSRP of $24.95, the Contour G-Riser is a valuable addition to the office or home Macintosh owner/user who needs under the system space for cleaning access, improved airflow, protection from foreign substance ingestion, and inside the system dirt and dust reduction.
