PRESS RELEASE  -------------  FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE  --------------------- 
 
 
 
DUET PROJECT SUSPENDED 
 
CIRTECH (UK) LIMITED regret to announce the suspension of  their exciting
development project for the Apple IIgs -  Duet. 
 
Further development of this project has been suspended  because of the absence
of continued marketing commitment for  the IIgs. The long term viability of
the Duet product  requires a continuing, supported IIgs market. The potential 
market among the current IIgs user base alone does not  justify continuing
investment in further development and  production expenditure. 
 
Consideration to restarting the Duet project will certainly  be given in
fu  a positive change in IIgs marketing  policies is exhibited.
