(BANY) Anything Internet Announces New Memory and Compute B: (BANY) Anything Internet Announces New Memory and Computer Configurators at AnythingPC.com COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Jul 16, 1999 (BUSINESS WIRE via COMTEX) -- AnythingInternet Corporation (OTC BB:ANYI) (OTC BB:BANY) announces that its wholly-owned subsidiary, AnythingPC Internet Corporation, has integrated both a memory and a computer configurator into its AnythingPC.com Internet storefront. The memory configurator called memor-E(sm) by Peripheral Enhancements enables AnythingPC's customers to easily determine and purchase the proper memory upgrades for their particular system from more than 12,000 different computer make and model combinations. Robert C. Schick, AnythingPC's president and chief executive officer, stated, "Purchasing computer memory is one of the most confusing and confounding processes for most computer owners. You often have to scroll through screens of difficult technical descriptions and hope that the memory you purchase is right for your machine. Now, through our storefronts our customers can find and purchase memory products that are guaranteed to work properly in their machines with just three simple clicks of their computer mouse." AnythingPC also introduced a computer configurator that gives customers the ability to build their own PC, notebook or server from the ground up -- just like those offered by Dell (Nasdaq:DELL), Gateway (NYSE:GTW), Micron (NYSE:MU) and CompUSA (NYSE:CPU). Schick stated, "The addition of the computer configurator takes a lot of the guesswork out of purchasing a computer on the Internet. You simply tell the configurator what you want and it will build the system for you. We want to make our customer's experience as simple and fun as possible and will continue developing and innovating new technologies such as these configurators to achieve this goal." Anything Internet reported record revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 1999 ending March 31, 1999, of $751,934, an increase of 707% from the same period a year ago.
