CMI is also the number one reseller of AutoCAD software to the U.S. Government.

Quintek's Board and Mr. Steele feel that the fundraising and deal making acumen evidenced by Mr. Steele's accomplishments at iBrite, coupled with the 9 years of experience and relationships he gained while at CMI, will prove to be of significant benefit to Quintek and its shareholders.

Tom Sims, outgoing Chairman, President and CEO, gave his undivided support for Mr. Steele, and went on to say, "I am very pleased that we were able to attract someone as talented as Robert Steele to take Quintek to the next level. Proof of his ability to grow a new technology is clearly seen in his raising two rounds of seven figure funding for iBrite, while also signing deals with companies like AOL (A division of Time Warner, Inc., New York, NY, www.aol.com) The world's largest online information service with access to the Internet, e-mail, chat rooms and a variety of databases and services.  (NYSE NYSE

Throughout his career Robert has gained valuable experience with end users and their needs. His unique knowledge of resellers and their motivations should prove beneficial to expanding our distribution network, solidifying customer relationships and establishing new ones."

Robert Steele stated, "I'm very excited about the opportunity to leverage my 10 years of experience with solution sales and the relationships which I have developed to take full advantage of the pre-existing and established market for Quintek's proprietary products." Mr. Steele added, "We estimate that there are well over 5,000 potential sites for Quintek's chemical-free desktop aperture card printer and feel that many of these sites are using outdated inefficient technology. Upgrading these sites with our products represents roughly $250,000,000 in potential sales. Our primary mission for the future is to expand and capture a large percentage of this market."
