SANTA ANA, Calif., April 20, 1999 - As business becomes more and more competitive, companies seek ways to combine quality and affordability with the latest technological advancements. Princeton Graphics Systems, Inc., a leading manufacturer of computer and high-definition displays, has responded with its family of digital flat panel (DFP) displays - the DPP500, DPP550, DPP560 and DPP800. As the first manufacturer to commercially offer a digital flat panel display, Princeton's growing product line provides users with superb image quality, optimum performance, and the latest DFP technology.

The 14-inch DPP500, the first in the DPP series, features a maximum resolution of 1024 x 768, a contrast ratio of 150:1, and a brightness level of 150 cd/m2. The 15-inch DPP550 touts a maximum resolution of 1024 x 768, a contrast ratio of 300:1, a brightness level of 200 cd/m2, and a 140-degree horizontal and 120-degree vertical viewing angle. The DPP500 and DPP550 retail for $939 and $1,039, respectively.

Similarly, the DPP560 offers the features of its 15-inch sibling, but also includes a pivot/portrait display function, which allows users to view the screen in both portrait and landscape modes. In addition, this $1,099 display incorporates a USB-powered hub, providing users with fast and easy connectivity to additional USB-compliant peripherals, such as a scanner, printer or digital camera.

As Princeton's flagship DFP unit, the 18.1-inch DPP800 offers a maximum resolution of 1280 x 1024, a contrast ratio of 230:1, and a brightness level of 200 cd/m2.

"We are committed to providing users with the display solutions they are looking for," said Tom Paterniti, vice president of product marketing. "Our commitment to providing high-quality displays that incorporate the latest technological advancements is apparent by our growing line of digital flat panel displays."

Employing pure digital technology coupled with a high-performance digital graphics card, each DPP unit uses a 20-pin connector, a new digital video interface recently approved by VESA" which utilizes PanelLink` (or TDMS). This connector allows all DPP monitors to seamlessly display images without the signal impurities caused by the traditional conversion process from digital to analog to digital. By using PanelLink, display signals are directly and precisely transmitted to the panel, providing users with crystal-clear, vibrant, polished images.

Measuring as small as three inches deep and weighing as little as 10 pounds, the DPP displays offer obvious space saving and portability benefits. In addition, each display complies with VESA's Flat Panel Monitor Physical Mounting Interface Standard, and therefore are compatible with a variety of arm or wall mounting kits, providing a multitude of installation possibilities.

The DPP displays are compatible with IBM", UNIX", Apple" Macintosh", Power Macintosh", Windows" 95, and high-resolution third-party graphics standards and meet all major emission and power management standards, including TCO 99, MPR-II, EPA Energy Star`, DPMS`, and NUTEK`. The monitors are backed by a three-year parts and labor warranty, and a three-year backlight warranty.
