                            Pre-Close Trading Update


The first half of 2006 has been a period of steady progress for Computacenter.

Our UK Technology Solutions saw strong growth on the back of a number of
projects, while our Managed and Support Services achieved modest growth in
comparison. On the product side of the UK business, improved margins have more
than compensated for a decline in revenues. This margin improvement comes from a
more favourable mix of business, including increased datacentre spend, strong
demand from the financial services sector and a decline in low margin trade
distribution sales.

In Germany, we expect to report a small profit for the first six months in
comparison to losses last year. Product sales have been weak but services
margins have improved. We have also secured some substantial new Managed
Services wins in Germany, with the contracts starting later in the year.

France has experienced good revenue growth, which should assist in reducing the
scale of the losses in the first half. However, the French market has
experienced strong downward pressure on margins.

Computacenter will today, 12 July 2006, hold an Investor and Analyst conference
call.

Computacenter will report its interim results on Tuesday 12 September 2006.
