PSI's New Customer Connection Service (CCS) Introduces New Customer
Flexibility for Integrating their Computer Networks into the
Nationally Available PSINet and Global Internet

Reston, VA - March 1, 1991 - John T. Eldredge, Director of Sales and
Marketing, Performance Systems International, Inc. (PSI), today
announced the application of breakthrough internetworking technologies
for a new PSI service allowing customer control of their external
network router. PSI can now provide this capability without effecting
the quality of the communications service, quality which has moved PSI
into a national leadership position for its innovative, reliable
internetworking services.  This new service, called Customer
Connection Service (CCS), matches the benefits of dedicated
integration of the customer's local area networks (LAN) into PSINet
and the global Internet with the network security and configuration
flexibility requested by many organizations through use of their own
router at their site.

CCS is designed to perform at speeds of 56Kbps and T1 (1.5Mbps) and is
available in all PSI Points-of-Presence (POPs) throughout the U.S.
Electronic mail among 20 million users, file transfer of global
information and software archives, remote terminal access to thousands
of computers around the world, bulletin boards and library access
capabilities are all available to CCS customers.  Individual Dialup
Services, at no additional cost, are available to individuals to
connect to CCS-attached computers while traveling or working at other
facilities using nationwide dialup points.

As an introductory offer to all new organizations participating in
this new service, PSI will extend a 20% discount off the regular
annual price of both 56Kbps and T1 Customer Connection Service.  This
introductory program extends from March 1 through June 1, 1991.

PSI is a value-added internetworking and information services provider
headquartered in Reston, Virginia.  CCS is the latest offering in a
wide spectrum of communications services for the individual and
corporate user of electronic information.
