ADVISORY/Self-Service `Virtual Food Courts' Powered by Netkey To Launch, Sending Deep Dish Pizza and Other `Tastes of Chicago' Nationwide.


Business/Technology Editors and Food Writers

ADVISORY...for Monday Monday: see week.  (July July: see month.  8)

WHAT: `Virtual Food Courts' powered by software from Netkey send deep
dish pizza and other `Tastes of Chicago' nationwide to debut in time
for summer.

WHY: Each city has it own food memories. Mention "Chicago" and
original deep-dish pizzas and other Chicago-style foods come to mind.
These offerings will now be available via touch-screen kiosks at
consumer-friendly ordering stations throughout Chicago. Customers can
order their favorite Chicago foods on-line and have them delivered at
home. The self-service kiosk concept will expand nationwide in the
future. See how Netkey's consumer-friendly software solutions for
retailers make these "Virtual Food Courts" possible.

WHO: Netkey, a software company specializing in self-service
applications, has teamed up with Chicago restaurant group "The Lou
Malnati Organization" for the tourist-season launch of new touch
screen kiosks. Executives from both companies are available on request
to discuss the kiosk launch program.

WHERE: The first of these innovative "Virtual Food Courts" is debuting
in the retail outlet "Chicago Sports & Novelty" located on Chicago's
Michigan Avenue. URL's are available to non-Chicago media for a
"taste" of the Web kiosk concept.

WHEN: Monday, July 8. (Others will be available in airports, hotel
lobbies, and trade show common areas beginning this summer.)
Appointments to view the kiosk or to discuss the restaurant chain's
retail strategy are available on request.
