AutoXray's PC-Link Brings Internet Connectivity to Auto Repair

    TEMPE, Ariz., April 3 AutoXray announces the first
software solution for linking its leading automotive diagnostic scanners to
PCs and the Internet.  PC-Link is a stand-alone software application that
provides professional mechanics and DYIers with the highest level of PC
functionality and Internet connectivity available at a practical price.
    With this Windows-based software, AutoXray's EZ-Link Scanners can receive
information updates and product upgrades in minutes over the World Wide Web,
instead of weeks or even months by mail.  PC-Link also allows scanner users to
archive diagnostic information through their PCs, as well as to generate
graphs and reports to better understand engine activity or problems.  While
saving automotive mechanics both time and money, PC-Link connects them to the
unlimited communication opportunities the Internet offers.
    "Our mission has always been to simplify the auto repair process," said
AutoXray CEO Bill Miller.  "PC-Link is a major step forward because it opens
an entirely new channel of communication within the auto repair industry.
PC-Link enables both DYIers and professionals to tap into the Internet and
their own PCs, for far greater functionality and speed of service.  PC-Link is
the first step towards truly interactive Web-based information sharing and
problem solving in our industry."
