INFOBUSINESS DEBUTS MULTIMEDIA VERSION OF POWERFUL INFORMATION USA CD-ROM

Unique Gold Mine of Information From 30,000 Government Sources Opens Door
To Free Assistance, Services, Loans, Scholarships, Insurance, Statistics,
Surplus Property & More

(COMDEX, LAS VEGAS)--InfoBusiness, Inc., publishers of America's most
comprehensive IBM-compatible software compilations of business, government
and entertainment data, has announced that it will begin shipping a
Windows/MPC-compliant CD-ROM version of its all-time best-selling title,
Information USA. The new title is packed with more than 400 MB of
information, including the entire Federal Domestic Assistance Catalog
database.

The new Information USA Multimedia CD-ROM for Windows also adds a sleek new
Microsoft Windows environment that enables users to open multiple windows,
highlight sections of text, set bookmarks and even record one's notes that
can be searched on later.

In addition, more than two hours of video clips are featured, starring New
York Times best-selling author Matthew Lesko, who guided the compilation
of the CD-ROM, which also contains the entire text of three of his books.
Lesko is considered the nation's leading authority on effectively using
and profiting from the vast resources of the U.S. Federal, State and Local
government organizations, according to Bryan H. Barron, president of
InfoBusiness, which also publishes five other software titles based on
Lesko's ground-breaking work.

Information USA provides instant, easy access to every Federal Domestic
Assistance program available, including sources of loans, free tax advice,
and access to more than 700,000 free experts. There is information and
guidance to buy a home, cure a health problem, beef up one's Rolodex,
start or expand one's business or simply to enhance one's personal life.
The variety of information contained in Information USA is as wide as the
Federal Government itself, ranging from information on azimuths and
Azerbaijan to zebras, zippers and Zurich.

Every Government Grant, Catalog, Hotline and Program Revealed

Lesko has been heralded by the Washington Post as "the guru of government
giveaways," with USA Today calling him "the Federal government's best
advanceman since Uncle Sam." The Washington Post has said that the
original Information USA "is designed to make readers think of the
government as approachable, competent and--brace yourself--generous,"
while The Detroit News maintains that "Lesko lists and details the working
of hundreds of government regulatory agencies and describes how regular
folks can use them to their advantage."

The CD-ROM's goal is to inform end-users of every program, grant, service,
loan or other assistance that the state, federal or local government has
to offer. "Information is power," said Barron. "It is the key to
opportunity. But a mountain of data is useless unless the right pieces can
be quickly and easily retrieved. For most individuals, Information USA can
serve as a life raft of knowledge in a raging sea of unmanageable data."

The Information USA multimedia edition includes all of the following
features:

* interactive participation via live action video, audio, pictures and
text, along with split-second access to any pertinent information.

* The ability to print any and all information in a variety of output
formats.

* Powerful search capabilities, including indexing of every word, so that
one can literally search on anything and get complete information in real
time.

* Multi-color highlighting allows users to highlight various information in
different colors as one might in a book, then search for all items tagged
with that color.

* Users can write and edit notes within the software, then search on their
own notes. Users can also place an unlimited number of nameable bookmarks
throughout the text of the entire CD-ROM.

* On-line documentation, examples, tutorials, utilities and a glossary of
terms make the software extremely easy to use.

The original Information USA was a Compute Choice Award finalist and
PC/Computing Top Ten award winner for reference works. The CD-ROM's
massive data section includes complete information on all 1,261 Federal
Domestic Assistance programs administered by 51 separate agencies,
including up-to-date contact addresses and telephone numbers. One can
receive market studies, educational grants and scholarships, resources for
investors, labor statistics, graduate studies research findings, and far
too much more to list.

According to Barron, more than 400,000 people will obtain money from the
government to start or expand a business and millions of others will tap
into the government's massive information resources to improve their
business. "Never before has this much valuable information been collected
in one place at such a reasonable cost. No individual should be without
this gold mine of current information," concluded Barron.

Information USA Multimedia CD-ROM for Windows is list priced at $69.95. It
requires Windows 3.1 and an MPC-compliant multimedia IBM-PC, 386 or
higher, to fully utilize the multimedia information. Text and graphics
only can be accessed with Windows and any 386 computer or higher. Super
VGA display is also highly recommended.
