This is a very interesting company providing a total solution for preventing repetitive stress injuries in compurter users.

1997 sales totalled $3 million, with 1998 projecting $6.5 to $8.0 million and a small profit.

1999 sales are projected at $15 to $30 million which could make this a very interesting investment at this current level of appro. $4.00 US.

Below is an overview of their products as copied from a recent news article.

"Proformix offers the only line of ergonomic keyboard/mouse products which can be
configured to meet a variety of usage and installation needs to both mitigate
repetitive stress injuries and dramatically improve user productivity," stated Joe
Pisarra, director, Proformix Federal Systems. "Considering the recent RSI program
announcements from the General Accounting Office and the Department of Defense,
as well as the current OSHA efforts to develop an RSI standard, this new contract will
make it much easier for government buyers to obtain these productive and safe
solutions."

Software

Proformix Ergonomic Management System(TM) (EMS) is a comprehensive
ergonomic and productivity improving software system comprised of two basic
products: ErgoSure and ErgoSentry. ErgoSure(TM) is used to assess ergonomic
risk and make recommendations to reduce that risk. ErgoSentry counts a user's
keystrokes and mouse movements against time, alerting the user of when to take a
micro break in order to maintain their peak productivity rate and minimize their risk
of repetitive stress injuries. ErgoSentry(TM) is also a training tool, recommending
stretching and exercise regimens according to the exceeded,
administrator-determined, keystroke and/or mouse movement thresholds.

Hardware

The Pre-Set Tiltdown is a patented keyboarding system that puts the hands and
wrists in neutral, low-risk positions for keying at the precise angle of negative
keyboard slope. As a result, users make fewer fatigue mistakes, may work longer,
and with greatly reduced risk of incurring painful repetitive stress injuries.

The IntelliTray is a similar patent-pending keyboarding system that incorporates a
Cirque Technologies' GlidePad(TM) pointing device for use instead of a mouse.

The Ergonomics Technical Advisory Group of the Wilkes-Barre, PA Veterans
Administration Medical Center recently earned Vice President Al Gore's
"Hammer/Scissor Award" for implementation of a highly-successful ergonomics
program after installing 70 Pre-Set Tiltdown systems. The award was given to the
group as part of the Vice President's National Performance Review -- a program
designed to encourage government employees to save tax dollars through creative
thinking, cost containment, and performance enhancement efforts.

Located in Branchburg, NJ, Proformix Systems is a leading manufacturer of
hardware and software products focused on providing research-quantified,
ergonomic and productivity enhancement solutions for the computer workplace.
Since 1991, Proformix products have played a key role in helping businesses realize
substantial productivity gains and reduced workers compensation and medical
claims costs with people working at computers.
