Press Release Summary: Xero web-based accounting software wows Mac users in Apple’s
biggest retail store.

Press Release Body: London, UK, October 01, 2008 -- Accounting software and the
enormous, super cool Apple store on Regent Street aren’t two things you’d
automatically put together, but a recent in-store demonstration from Xero showed
Apple business customers that web-based accounting software can be just as appealing
and intuitive as other Macintosh applications.

Xero is one of the only web-based accounting software systems that has been
developed for both Mac and PC users. It works just as well on Safari as it does
Firefox and Internet Explorer. But more importantly it turns accessing business
accounts online into the intuitive, great-looking experience Mac users are used to.

Xero Founder and UK MD Hamish Edwards says the web-based accounting software
demonstration was a big success, with feedback suggesting it had challenged people’s
perceptions of what online accounting software can deliver.

“Lots of small businesses don’t enjoy managing the financial side of their business
and that’s got a lot to do with the bad experiences they’ve had using cumbersome
software and complicated processes.”

Edwards says staying on top of the numbers is incredibly important ingredient of
business success. And it needn’t be an unpleasant experience

“We specifically designed Xero online accounting software to work for business
owners as well as their accountants. That’s why it’s as simple to use as a computer
game, but there’s enough sophistication there to prepare the end of year
financials.”

Xero also recently introduced a new online accounting service, Xero for iPhone and
iPod Touch. It enables business owners and their advisers to access up-to-date
accounts information wherever and whenever they need to, and is available free to
all Xero users.
