HERE'S THE NEWS!!!!!! Thursday December 4, 5:40 pm Eastern Time Company Press Release SOURCE: Total Multimedia Inc. TMM Announces Sales of the 'Graceland Interactive' CD-ROM Through Its New Entertainment Division 'Digital Ranch 101' CAMARILLO, Calif., Dec. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- TMM announced today that they are acting as publisher for the CD-ROM interactive tour of the Elvis Graceland Estate. The two CD set includes a complete tour of the Graceland mansion, over 350 stories about Elvis and Graceland as told by some of his closest friends, Elvis home movies and photographs, a tour of Elvis' car museum and some of the world's best loved music. The two disc set features classic Elvis music, a complete song and movie list and previously unreleased materials from the Elvis Presley Estate. The disc allows the users to tour 18 areas of the house, many of which are not accessible in the existing tour provided at the Graceland estate in Memphis. Users can shoot pool at Elvis' table in the famous pool room, play Elvis' guitar and piano and watch memorable live performances. ''Gentlemen's Quarterly Magazine'' in a review described the disc. ''Technology has found a way to let you be Elvis ... walk in his boots.'' The Hollywood Reporter described the disc as an ''In depth examination of the musical legend.'' TMM is releasing the disc through its new publishing arm, Digital Ranch 101. The two set disc is competitively priced at $29.95 and is being sold to retail outlets through Ingram Micro, Inc., the Company's US distribution agent. TMM announced that initial sales of the disc at CompUSA have far exceeded expectations, averaging 50% above CompUSA's experience for a Christmas release software product. TMM has signed marketing agreements with Tiger Direct, Office Max, and Computer City and is expecting to ship over 20,000 units in response to initial Christmas orders. Lorne Mattner, TMM VP of Business Development, stated from the Company headquarters in Camarillo, ''The initial figures from the CompUSA sell-through are evidence of the strong market appeal of this exciting product. We look forward to a solid Christmas season as well as significant first quarter sales, when software purchases are at their highest for the year as consumers are buying product for their new Christmas hardware purchases. We also expect some in-store promotions during the week of Elvis' birthday (January 8th) and look forward to sustained sales based on the performer's unique, world class status.'' TMM plans the release of additional entertainment products and the highly acclaimed TruDef compression product through its new Digital Ranch 101 division using the distribution arrangement with Ingram Micro.
