Neoware to Acquire TeleVideo's Thin Client Business

Neoware Grows its Leadership Position in the Thin Client Market by Acquiring
the Fourth Largest US Thin Client Provider

KING OF PRUSSIA, PA and SAN JOSE, CA, Jan. 12, 2005 - Neoware Systems (Nasdaq: NWRE) and TeleVideo, Inc. (OTC BB: TELV.PK), today announced that the companies have entered into a Definitive Agreement under which Neoware will acquire TeleVideo's thin client business including all thin client assets, certain contract obligations, a trademark license, product brands, customer lists, customer contracts and non-competition agreements for $5 million in cash plus a potential earn-out based upon performance. In addition, effective immediately, TeleVideo has retained Neoware as its exclusive distributor and sales agent. Starting today, all TeleVideo thin client products are available to TeleVideo customers directly from Neoware. Subject to regulatory approval, the acquisition is expected to close in March 2005.

TeleVideo, Inc. is a publicly held company specializing in the development and manufacturing of Windows-based and network terminals. Founded in 1975, TeleVideo established itself as a leading supplier in the video display terminal industry. The company pioneered a new generation of computer terminals with the introduction of its first "smart" terminals, based on the Intel microprocessor, at a time when dumb terminals were the industry standard. Recently ranked by IDC as the fourth largest thin client provider in the U.S., TeleVideo has developed a niche as the leading provider of all-in-one, integrated, flat-panel, thin clients, including one of the industry's only 17" flat panel thin client models. Sales of TeleVideo thin clients were approximately $7 million in 2004.

The acquisition of TeleVideo's thin client business increases Neoware's market share and distribution channels, and broadens Neoware's product offerings in the thin client appliance market. Additionally, Neoware has agreed to retain TeleVideo as its sales agent in Korea, opening a new geographic market for the Company. TeleVideo thin client products will continue to be available through the existing channel of TeleVideo authorized distributors and resellers.

"We are pleased to partner with Neoware to provide our customers with superior quality and service," said Dr. K. Philip Hwang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of TeleVideo, Inc. "TeleVideo's products and customers will benefit greatly as a result of our partnership with Neoware."

"With this acquisition, Neoware further enhances our market share, while taking advantage of economies of scale and synergies between the two organizations to enhance operating margins. Simultaneously, we continue to broaden our product line with innovative new products," stated Michael Kantrowitz, Chairman and CEO of Neoware. "TeleVideo and Neoware customers are assured of continued development, quality products and superior service from a financially strong company that is committed to leadership in thin client appliance computing."
