Trading at 2.31/2.50...look up earnings: Cable Link, Inc. -- PC & Parts, Inc. dba Auro Computer Systems -- Announces Agreement With Gateway COLUMBUS, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 19, 1999--Cable Link, Inc.'s (OTC BB:CBLK - news) wholly owned subsidiary, PC & Parts dba Auro Computer Systems (''Auro'') today announced that it has entered into a reseller agreement with Gateway 2000 Major Accounts, Inc. (GTW) to be an authorized Gateway reseller. Bob Binsky, Chairman of the Board, stated that this arrangement allows Auro the right to market, sell, lease and install Gateway products. This reseller relationship further provides Auro the opportunity to compete with Gateway's direct marketing which in previous years has been a challenge. This reseller agreement helps Auro lead the way to becoming an early adaptor of assisting Gateway into the VAR (value added reseller) channel. Auro has, since its inception, pursued a relationship of servicing business clients with value added services. In addition, Auro will be selling computers, computer upgrades and servers on its own website, and will continue to service tier-one computer brands such as Compaq (CPQ), IBM (IBM), Toshiba (TOSBF), Hewlett Packard (HWP), and its own ''Auro'' brand to businesses and consumers. Cable Link, Inc. is one of the largest suppliers of refurbished equipment to the C.A.T.V. industry nationwide, and is a key provider of computer hardware and services in the state of Ohio. On January 21, 1999, Cable Link announced the development of its website for the wholesale and retail purchase of C.A.T.V. equipment (new and used) as well as consumer electronics for television applications, which will now include the availability of Gateway products. The product line will also include a large number of consumable products readily available from its website. It is expected that internet commerce will be operational by the end of Cable Link's first quarter, March 31, 1999. Cable Link's customers include Time Warner (TWX), Tele-Communications, Inc. (TCOMA), Jones Intercable (JOIN) and Media One (UMG). Auro's customers include Bank One (ONE), Huntington Banks (HBAN), MCI/WorldCom (WCOM), and Ohio State University. The new internet commerce will enable current customers to streamline their purchasing while ensuring the most current pricing available. Cable Link has had three consecutive years of profitable earnings ending December 31, 1998 and had consolidated sales in excess of $20 million for the year ending December 31, 1998 compared to $10.1 million for the year ending December 31, 1997. It is expected that these new opportunities will result in additional strategic alliances for Cable Link and its subsidiary such as its designation as an authorized new and used product distributor of C.A.T.V. equipment for Scientific Atlanta (SFA) and Jerrold Communications (GIC). This press release may include statements, which constitute forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are subject to risk and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Factors which would cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, factors detailed in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission Filings.
