Exhibit No. 99


Citrix Purchases Additional Technologies

New Technologies to Enhance Citrix Thin-Client/Server Products and Advance
Strategy for Enterprise Application Deployment

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- January 12, 1998 --

Citrix Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:CTXS) today announced it has signed a definitive
agreement to acquire certain software technologies and assets of Insignia
Solutions (Nasdaq:INSGY), including Macintosh and UNIX ICA(R)-based clients,
X.11 driver technology, Keoke technology, and all modifications and technology
enhancements to WinFrame(R) thin-client/server software marketed under
Insignia's NTRIGUE brand name, as well as transfer engineering resources
necessary for ongoing product development. The transaction, which is subject to
customary closing conditions, is expected to close later this month.

Today's announcement advances Citrix's strategy for delivering universal access
to Windows-based applications-- regardless of client hardware, operating
platform or network connection. The acquisition of Insignia's technologies will
provide a basis for further expanding Citrix's own ICA-based client offerings to
include additional, non-Intel device platforms such as Macintosh computers and
UNIX workstations.

"The technologies we will be purchasing will provide a basis for enhancing the
capabilities of our thin-client/server software products, making it easier for
customers to extend the reach of Windows-based applications to any type of
client device," said Roger W. Roberts, President and CEO of Citrix. "This is an
important milestone for our cross-platform client strategy, and it further
strengthens our ability to enhance key thin-client/server technologies, such as
our ICA protocol."

The aggregate purchase price is approximately U.S. $17.5 million and the
acquisition will be accounted for as a purchase. A substantial portion of the
purchase price is expected to be allocated to purchased in-process research and
development for which the company expects to incur a one-time charge to its
operations, amounting to approximately U.S. $16 million, in the quarter ending
March 31, 1998.

Pricing, packaging and availability of new products and enhancements based upon
former Insignia technologies will be announced at a later date. Approximately
one-half of the Insignia development team will join Citrix at the company's new
research and development center in High Wycombe, England. Citrix intends to
provide Insignia NTRIGUE customers a migration path to its current WinFrame
software as well as its thin-client/server software for the Windows NT Server
4.0 environment, currently code-named "pICAsso."
