Techno up on online shopping service

Mail order giant Microwarehouse will this month begin selling computer products under its Technomatic brand name on Compuserve's UK online service this month.

The company will launch the initiative with a range of 250 products including PCs, printers and modems. Bestsellers and other products which fit in with Compuserve's demographic profile in the UK will be added to the range in the future. In three months, independent retailers will also be invited to sign up for the Compuserve Shopping Centre.
