ATLANTA – The SUBWAY restaurant chain, the

point-of-sale (POS) solution provider. The
NCR RealPOS™ 70 product line will be sold exclusively through Subtotal POS Systems Ltd., a Nova

Subtotal’s arrangement with NCR will allow the company to offer a fully
integrated POS solution designed specifically for the hospitality quick-service
environment. The NCR
RealPOS 70 is built around Intel’s EmbeddedATX specification, providing a
stable POS platform and extended lifecycle through the use of an
industry-standard motherboard design. The
NCR RealPOS 70 POS solution with a 15” Touch Screen will be offered using Intel’s
Pentium 4 processor.
“As a POS solution provider for the SUBWAY chain, we know first hand the
unique challenges this hospitality environment presents,” said Daryl Fraser,
Subtotal’s Chief Executive Officer and a multi-store SUBWAY chain
franchisee. “The NCR RealPOS 70 allows
us to address these challenges and provide long-term investment protection
through its simple-to-service, durable and flexible design.”
The NCR RealPOS 70 incorporates readily accessible components that can be
serviced or replaced in minutes.
“By combining our proven system, used by restaurant operators worldwide
and backed by more than 100 years of hospitality experience, with Subtotal’s
training, hardware and software support, and intimate knowledge of the SUBWAY
chain business model, we believe SUBWAY brand franchisees will now have access
