ELECTRIC FISH AND SEA WARE TEAM UP TO PROVIDE UNIX CONSULTING

Electric Fish Inc. announced today that it has formed a strategic alliance with Sea Ware Inc to provide consulting services for real-time systems and device driver development across Unix, Macintosh, and embedded-systems platforms. The alliance brings together Electric Fish's experience and success in shipping shrink-wrap commercial software with Sea Ware's expertise in real-time systems design and kernel-level device driver development.

Electric Fish and Sea Ware will offer an integrated suite of services including architecture, design, production, testing, integration, validation, documentation, and packaging for the real-time systems and hardware-vendor communities.

"With the increased deployment of Linux throughout the enterprise, and the arrival of MacOS X on the desktop, Unix is becoming more important to our customers," said Dav Lion, co-president of Electric Fish. "We are pleased to partner with Sea Ware to bring the high-quality experience which users have come to expect from shrink-wrap software to the Unix and embedded systems realms."

"We look forward to working more closely with E-Fish, with their strong position in the desktop market, as we work to create and package solutions that transcend the one-of model typical of the aerospace and defense industries," said Andrew Bereson, president of Sea Ware. "This is clearly a win-win!"

Electric Fish Inc. is a small software consultancy located in Seattle, Washington, with a successful track record of commercial software titles shipped. For further information please visit <http://www.electricfish.com> or contact Dav Lion at (206) 634-2926.
