BILLERICA, MA, June 2, 2003 - CSP Inc. (NASDAQ: CSPI), a provider of eBusiness solutions, IT systems integration services and dense cluster computing systems, today announced that it has acquired Technisource Hardware, Inc., a Ft.

Technisource Hardware is a reseller of software and hardware products for IT infrastructure requirements and provides professional services related to systems integration. The Company expects the acquisition to be immediately accretive. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Technisource Hardware will be operated as the Systems and Solutions Division of CSP's MODCOMP subsidiary and will relocate into MODCOMP's Ft. Lauderdale, Florida headquarters.
