www.es.com - Evans & Sutherland Computer Corporation (E&S) (NASDAQ: ESCC) today announced that on September 3, 2008, it received approval from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff (the "Staff") to transfer the listing of E&S's securities from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market. The transfer was effective with the open of business on Monday, August 25, 2008, pending

receipt of the aforementioned Staff approval. Listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market does not affect E&S's ticker symbol, which will remain "ESCC."

The Nasdaq Capital Market is a continuous trading market that operates in substantially the same manner as The Nasdaq Global Market. Effective with the transfer of E&S's securities to The Nasdaq Capital Market, E&S became subject to the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market instead of those of The Nasdaq Global Market. E&S currently complies with all of the listing requirements of The Nasdaq Capital Market.

Comments from David H. Bateman, President and Chief Executive Officer:

"E&S's securities have been trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market for just over a week while awaiting this final approval. During this time the stock price has steadily increased. The formal approval of E&S's transfer application completes E&S's listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market and enhances E&S's ability to focus on improving its performance and sustain continuing improvement in our share price."
