LYNUXWORKS AND NEOMAGIC TO PROVIDE BLUECAT LINUX OS FOR SYSTEM-ON-CHIP SOLUTION FOR HANDHELD DEVICES SAN JOSE, Calif. - March 14, 2001 - LynuxWorks?, Inc., a provider of open source and true real-time embedded solutions for the post-PC era, and NeoMagic Corporation (Nasdaq: NMGC), a leading pioneer of embedded DRAM and logic technology, today announced that they are using LynuxWorks' embedded BlueCat? Linux for the upcoming NeoMagic System-on-Chip (SoC) platform for smart handheld devices. The SoC solution from NeoMagic is designed to meet the ever-increasing demand for enhanced graphics, audio and video playback, low power consumption, compact form factor and affordable price targets in handheld systems, elevating the Personal Digital Assistant to the level of a Personal Entertainment Device. One key part of that success equation will be capable, yet cost-effective, operating systems for the deployment of embedded applications and drivers. "We found the open-source nature of LynuxWorks' BlueCat Linux, and their aggressive porting services, quite suitable for keeping our development and deployment costs to a minimum," said Jason Chiang, product marketing manager at NeoMagic.

BlueCat Linux has been engineered to allow configuration to accurately match the requirements of embedded development from small devices to large-scale multi-CPU systems.
