Torrance, California – August 20, 2007 -- PC Mall, Inc.

Under the terms of the agreement, PC Mall will pay an aggregate purchase price of $55 million, consisting of $47.5 million in cash and up to $7.5 million in shares of PC Mall stock. The purchase price is subject to adjustment on a dollar for dollar basis to the extent that SARCOM's net asset value (as defined in the agreement) is greater or less than $19.6 million at closing. The acquisition will be effected by merging a subsidiary of PC Mall into SARCOM, and SARCOM will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of PC Mall. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is currently expected to close in the third quarter of 2007.

PC Mall believes that this acquisition will enhance PC Mall's capabilities as a reseller of advanced technology product solutions and services, and is consistent with PC Mall's commitment to grow its business through expansion of PC Mall's share of its customers' IT spending. PC Mall expects that the transaction will be accretive to earnings beginning in the fourth quarter of 2007.

SARCOM, which is headquartered in Columbus, Ohio,  provides top tier services and products to a broad range of customers, including enterprise and mid-market corporate clients, healthcare organizations, professional firms, and government, education and non-profit organizations in the United States. SARCOM had revenues of approximately $248 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, and approximately $162 million for the seven months ended July 31, 2007, an increase of 23% compared to approximately $132 million for the seven months ended July 31, 2006.

Frank Khulusi, PC Mall’s President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The 23% growth experienced by SARCOM so far this year is very strong. I am also very pleased to report strong sales growth for PC Mall for the month of July 2007. PC Mall’s preliminary unaudited consolidated net sales were approximately $89 million in July 2007, a 24% increase compared to approximately $72 million in July 2006, showing continued strong performance across all areas of our business. This is a significant acceleration from the already strong growth we reported for the second quarter of this year. We believe one of the reasons for this solid performance is our focus on our solution selling capabilities, which we believe will be further enhanced with the SARCOM acquisition.”

Khulusi continued, "We are very excited to announce the pending acquisition of SARCOM by PC Mall. We believe that this acquisition will be complimentary to PC Mall and Wareforce, our mid-market/enterprise subsidiary, and we expect that it will present a tremendous opportunity for us to leverage the solutions capabilities of Wareforce and SARCOM to address the growing need of our customers for more sophisticated and comprehensive solutions." Khulusi noted further, "Many of our manufacturer partners are looking for resellers such as PC Mall to provide a higher level of value in supporting complex solutions in today's markets, and we believe that our acquisition of SARCOM will significantly enhance our ability to do that. The acquisition is representative of PC Mall's commitment to growth, and in addition to providing SARCOM with the opportunity to leverage the efficiencies and scale of PC Mall, it also provides PC Mall with an enhanced offering of IT solutions and services.”

Charles Sweet, SARCOM’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer added, “We believe the operational efficiencies gained by leveraging PC Mall’s size, our combined national footprint and SARCOM’s solutions expertise, will make this a winning combination for our customers, manufacturer partners, and employees.” Sweet added, “We are delighted that both organizations share a common commitment to operational excellence and customer satisfaction.”
