The company posted this on PRN at 17:57. No mention of the $75K they get. Still three-to-one sell orders to buy orders on Island.

CHANTILLY, Va., Aug. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- GTSI Corp. (Nasdaq: GTSI) today
announced that the Army Communications and Electronic Command (CECOM) has
awarded GTSI one of two contracts for its MMAD-1 acquisition. MMAD-1 is an
indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) dual-award contract. GTSI's award value is
$857 million, if all options are exercised by the government. Although the contract was
awarded by the Army, the Navy and IRS were also instrumental in requirement
development and contract award. All three agencies will be the major customers on the
contract. In addition, MMAD-1 is open to all agencies within the Federal government
including DOD and civilian as well as foreign military sales.

The contract has a two-year base period with three one-year options for a total of five
years.

GTSI will provide commercial off-the shelf (COTS) high end 64-bit servers,
workstations, operating systems, compilers, software applications, peripherals, local and
wide area networking (hardware and software), engineering and support services
(classified and unclassified), managed environment support, equipment maintenance,
system upgrades, training, leasing, associated documentation, and consumables to meet
the world wide requirements of the government.

"This is the largest contract in GTSI's history. MMAD-1 plays to our strength in the
high-end UNIX computing environment and affirms our position as a leading provider of
integrated high-end products and services," said GTSI Chairman and CEO Dendy
Young.

Except for historical information, all of the statements, expectations and assumptions
contained in the foregoing are "forward-looking statements" (within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) that involve a number of risks and
uncertainties. It is possible that the assumptions made by management including, but not
limited to, the revenues estimated for the contract, may not materialize. Actual results may
differ materially from those projected or implied in any forward-looking statements. In
addition to the above factors, other important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially are those listed in the Company's most recent report on Form 10-K and
included from time to time in other documents filed by the Company with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
