LINUX2ORDER ANNOUNCES IMMEDIATE AVAILABILITY
OF 'RED HAT LINUX 7' SYSTEM

PROVO, Utah (September 29, 2000) - - The new release of Red Hat Linux 7 is
now available on a custom CD-ROM through www.linux2order.com. The 2-CD-ROM
package is $12.95, plus shipping.

This week's announcement has generated intense interest in the product, but
availability has led to delays as many programmers search for the system and
encounter waiting periods while the system downloads. Linux2order has
pre-loaded Red Hat Linux 7 on CD-ROMs and is ready to fulfill orders
beginning today.

"The current popularity of Red Hat Linux 7 - - and the related frustrations
in locating it online and waiting for downloads - - will allow us to
demonstrate the value linux2order.com brings to the Linux community," said
Erik Vogel, president and CEO of the Provo, Utah-based company. "We hope
Linux users will take this opportunity to purchase the new Red Hat system,
and then return to our site for other Linux selections."

Linux2order.com offers more than 5,500 Linux titles, and is on target to
surpass 7,000 by the end of the year, Vogel said.
