STACKER NOTE STACKER NOTE
COMPAQ LICENSES STACKER 4.0
Industry Leading Data Compression Technology to Now
Ship With Compaq Personal Computers

STAC FAX 1115 (03-23-1994)
-----------------------------------------------------------------

CARLSBAD, Calif., March 22, 1994 Stac Electronics
(NASDAQ:STAC), the leading supplier of data compression products
for increasing the storage capacity of personal computers,
announced today that Compaq Computer Corporation has licensed
Stacker 4.0 for Windows & DOS to ship with Compaq desktop and
portable computers. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

"Compaq customers have become accustomed to getting the
additional disk capacity that compression provides," said Lorie
Strong, Compaq vice president, Portable and Software Marketing.
"And with Stacker 4.0 pre-installed, we are able to provide our
customers with an industry leading compression product."

Stac's agreement with Compaq comes less than a month after Stac
won a patent infringement lawsuit against Microsoft Corporation
and Microsoft’s removal of the infringing DoubleSpace compression
technology from MS-DOS 6.2.

Stacker 4.0 for Windows & DOS is the latest release of Stac's
award-winning software that includes advanced compression
technology for more than doubling a system’s hard disk capacity,
new safety features for enhanced reliability, and a comprehensive
tool set for using Stacker and managing Stacker drives.

"Compaq has a long history of taking a leadership position in the
computer industry and for providing the highest value products
available," said Gary Clow, Stac chairman and chief executive
officer. "We are honored to have Compaq be the first system
manufacturer to license Stacker."

Stac Electronics is a leading supplier of high performance data
compression products for personal computers. Implemented in
software and silicon, Stac’s products are sold direct from the
company and through retail and OEM sales distribution channels
worldwide.

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
