(COMTEX) B: HyperDynamics Launches Electronic Commerce and HyperTech B: HyperDynamics Launches Electronic Commerce and HyperTech Commentary HOUSTON (Jan. 14) BUSINESS WIRE -Jan. 14, 1999--HyperDynamics Corporation (OTC BB:HYPD) announced today its strategic plan for e-commerce. The company also reported a new service, "The HyperTech Commentary," to provide explanations to the technically oriented business plans of various publicly traded Internet-related companies. Through its wholly owned subsidiary MicroData Systems Inc., HyperDynamics is preparing its web site for a complete e-commerce presence. MicroData is a certified reseller for Great Plains Software (Nasdaq:GPSI). Great Plains is the developer of the Great Plains CS+ SQL mid-range accounting system platform. In addition to its primary accounting modules, Great Plains has also developed its "Next Generation e-business applications" including the "Dynamics.Commerce" product. Designed to use Microsoft's (Nasdaq:MSFT) SQL server relational database and the Microsoft Site Server-Commerce Edition, this electronic business platform allows HyperDynamics both to provide an e-commerce means of selling its subsidiaries' products and also to help implement and support completely integrated e-commerce systems for its customers. HyperDynamics will focus heavily on developing the web-based front ends to integrate with this powerful platform. HyperDynamics President and CEO Kent Watts stated, "One big difference in our e-commerce strategy is that we will provide completely integrated e-commerce systems for larger firms as well as hosting services for smaller companies. Additionally, because of the Great Plains partnership, our e-commerce solution will be a complete front office to back office and inventory control system that will, by design, be tightly integrated with the accounting system. This approach provides a much higher degree of efficiency that will increase our customers' bottom line. The HyperDynamics approach has a distinct advantage over fragmented approaches because it allows a company to maintain a perpetual inventory system that automatically reconciles with the general ledger without duplicating data entry." Examples of "Dynamics.Commerce"-based e-commerce sites can be found at www.artuframe.com and www.holtoutlet.com. In addition to its e-commerce launch, HyperDynamics also will be unveiling a service directed to the Internet community called "The HyperTech Commentary." This page on the company's web site at www.hyd.net will provide explanations to the technically oriented business plans of various publicly traded Internet-related companies. Watts said, "This service will be provided free of charge to HyperDynamics' investors, customers and other interested parties. We hope the intense interest in the Internet-related companies will bring traffic to our web site."
