Compaq Offers Unique Connection with Curtis Strange Through His iPAQ Pocket PC (Advisory)

HOUSTON, June 28, 2001

Compaq Computer Corporation (NYSE: CPQ) and 2001 U.S. Ryder Cup Captain Curtis Strange have joined together through a Compaq sponsor relationship, to offer golfers a unique opportunity. Curtis will provide exclusive online updates on this year's major tournaments leading up to and throughout the Ryder Cup Tournament, September 24-30. These regular articles will be available on the Web at http://www.compaq.com/curtisstrange.

As of June 26, 2001, fans can also send questions directly to Curtis via e-mail through his Compaq Web page. One question each week will be selected and answered by Curtis himself. Also, from June 26 through the end of October, Compaq will award up to 20 lucky fans their very own iPAQ™ Pocket PC--one of the hottest selling products on the market. The winners will be chosen from among those who submit questions to 'Ask Curtis.' The question and answer of the week and the lucky winners will be posted on the site, along with terms and conditions of participation.

The site also features links to the PGA Tour's home page and Compaq's iPAQ Pocket PC Web page. Throughout the summer, additional promotions and features will appear on the Curtis Strange page, such as a forthcoming golf sweepstakes for customers of Compaq's DirectPlus catalog, which offers Compaq products and services to small and medium businesses.
