         SANTA ANA, Calif., April 30, 2002 - Micro General Corporation (NASDAQ:
MGEN), the leading provider of production and workflow software systems to the
title and real estate industries, announced today that it has received a letter
from Fidelity National Information Solutions (NASDAQ: FNIS) relating to a
proposal made to Micro General's shareholders, pursuant to which Fidelity
National Information plans to offer 0.696 shares in exchange for each share of
Micro General common stock for an offer price equivalent to $16.65 per share,
based on April 29 closing prices of both companies' stocks.

         Because Fidelity National Information and Micro General are each
majority-owned subsidiaries of Fidelity National Financial, Inc. (NYSE: FNF),
Micro General's board of directors has appointed a Special Committee of
independent directors to evaluate Fidelity National Information's proposal. The
Special Committee retained Needham & Company, Inc. to provide financial advisory
services. Micro General has scheduled a special meeting of its board of
directors to consider the offer.
