Press Release Body = Elitegroup Computer Systems, Inc. (ECS), a leading motherboard,
barebone system and notebook manufacturer, has launched the "ECS Green Competitive
Advantage and Quality Plan" by implementing innovative green product designs,
manufacturing processes and component control.

Under this plan, ECS has established four "non-toxic" control processes, which
include non-toxic suppliers, non-toxic raw materials, non-toxic manufacturing and
non-toxic products. ECS will obtain IECQ QC080000 certification in November 2006 to
go together with three other EU-wide environmental regulations that include Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), RoHS Compliance and the eco-design
requirements for Energy-Using Products (EuP).

Following global environmental regulations for prohibiting harmful materials and
waste recycling requirements have made all major computer and component suppliers in
Taiwan improve raw materials, manufacturing processes and workflows to meet these
new global environmental policies.

Based on the ECS long-term commitment to customers and the environment, it has
launched the green product design concept, which follows the EU's environmental
restrictions for not using harmful materials as well as enforcing suppliers to
comply with the green standards. In addition, ECS initiated the "ECS Green
Competitive Advantage and Quality Plan" to minimize the impact EU-wide environmental
regulations have on business, and turn these restrictions into new business
opportunities.

Because global environmental awareness continues to gain importance, green product
development know-how becomes a competitive advantage. The "ECS Green Competitive
Advantage and Quality Plan" starts from the engineering and product design stages
and includes non-toxic materials, eco-designs, and easier disassembly and recycling.
RoHS compliance applies to non-toxic components; WEEE applies to disassembly and
recycling. Also, to create energy saving products and low-power consumption designs,
Life Cycle Management and Eco-profiles are evaluated as well.

The ECS Green Competitive Advantage and Quality Plan comprised of four non-toxic
controls. These include:

· Non-toxic supply control: Starting in the product design stage, all components and
raw materials must meet environmental rules.

· Non-toxic material control: All components and raw materials must pass internal
non-toxic testing.

· Non-toxic production: All production facilities such as tooling and soldering have
to meet all environmental standards and pass regular inspections.

· Non-toxic quality control: All finished goods must pass non-toxic quality testing.

All these efforts reflect the ECS commitment to protecting the earth, our customers
and future generations.
