Tuesday April 2, 2002
MARKHAM, Ontario, April
2, 2002 - Customers who would love to outfit their new Power
Mac G4 with the unbelievable graphics performance of the Radeon
8500 Mac Edition, have a great new option. ATI's "Supercharge
your Power Mac G4" promotion will allow customers to trade
in the mainstream graphics solution that came with their Power
Mac G4 - either Radeon 7500 for Mac or GeForce 4MX - for a $150
rebate on a new Radeon 8500 Mac Edition graphics card.
With outstanding performance and exceptional visual quality,
the Radeon 8500 Mac Edition brings the ultimate 3D graphics
experience in both Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X to Mac gamers and
enthusiasts.
Customers participating in the program will purchase their
new Radeon 8500 Mac Edition from the ati.com web site, where
they will be asked to provide identifying information for
both their existing graphics product and Power Mac G4. Once
their new Radeon 8500 Mac Edition arrives, customers will
return their Radeon 7500 or GeForce4 MX to receive a $150
rebate directly on their credit card. The program will run
until May 31, 2002.
"Many Apple customers have expressed a desire to configure
their new Power Mac G4 with the Radeon 8500 Mac Edition, but
it isn't an available option," said Stan Ossias, Product
Manager, Mac Products, Desktop Marketing, ATI Technologies
Inc. "This program enables new Power Mac buyers to experience
more advanced graphics without having to pay for two graphics
cards."
