Apple Executive to Become MicroNet President and CEO

IRVINE, Calif. -- Morris Taradalsky, vice president and general manager, Apple Business Systems Division, has accepted the
position of president and CEO, MicroNet Technology Inc., the company said today.

MicroNet, a profitable, fast-growing Orange County-based company with revenues approaching $100 million, is one of the leading suppliers in the high-performance data storage market. The six-year-old company targets the pre-press, digital video
and local area network (LAN) computing markets and has recently begun to deliver products for the client/server environment.
MicroNet's products are designed for Apple, IBM and Novell platforms.

"As one of only four general managers reporting directly to Apple's Michael Spindler, Taradalsky gives MicroNet the leadership and technical knowledge to manage the company's roadmap into the 21st Century," Dennis Bradshaw, executive vice president, MicroNet, said.

"Morris' wealth of experience on both the Apple and IBM platforms, specifically his skills in managing Apple's high-end workgroup server product line and his involvement in the PowerPC arena, is a perfect complement to our business strategy," Bradshaw added.

Taradalsky is credited with introducing Apple's first line of workgroup servers and a number of new networking services such
as AppleSearch for information retrieval and Apple Remote Access for mobile computing. He was also responsible for all hardware and software for networking, client/server computing, UNIX, and open systems for Apple Computer.

According to Bradshaw, Taradalsky's experience in enterprise computing and establishing solid relationships with key industry players will also help MicroNet fortify a position in the enterprise marketplace.

During his five year tenure at Apple, Taradalsky was responsible for a number of key partnerships. With IBM, he was responsible for the Interoperability, Taligent, and PowerOpen Alliance agreements. He also established agreements with Oracle for Apple's database servers, with both Hewlett-Packard and SunSoft for Apple's Macintosh Applications Environment and with Novell for Apple's workgroup servers.

"Morris is an exciting addition to our management team. He is a leader and a proven team player and brings the necessary skill-set to propel MicroNet to the next level," Gail Itow, chief financial officer, MicroNet, said. "Morris' commitment to customer satisfaction was one of the key elements that made him attractive to us."

Among his achievements, Taradalsky expanded Apple's service and support commitments. He rolled out Apple's first nationwide customer-assistance 800 number, expanded Apple's warranty programs and introduced a number of innovative approaches to training, service and support for Apple's resellers and customers.

Prior to Apple, Taradalsky spent 18 years with IBM, holding key management positions in research and development. He was the vice president and general manager of IBM's Santa Teresa Laboratory, IBM's largest software development center.

Taradalsky, a graduate of Penn State and who is married and has two sons, will take over MicroNet's operations in May. He will receive an undisclosed equity stake in the company.
