 ATi
has
been
manufacturing
video
cards
and
other multimedia
products since 1985 and
was
one
of
the
earliest
companies
to
institute
the
concept
of
a
combination TV/Video
card.
The theory seemed simple, combine
a
quality graphics
card
and
TV
tuner
into
a
single PCB, that
would give
the consumer
the
best
of
both
worlds
in
a
single
product.
And
so
the ?All-In-Wonder?
product
line
was
born.
These
days, ATi
has
been
releasing
new
models
of
the ?All-In-Wonder?
at
a
feverish
pace,
with
three
new
versions
since
last fall alone,
the All-In-Wonder Radeon 8500DV,
the All-In-Wonder Radeon 7500,
and
now
the All-In-Wonder Radeon 8500.
Not long
before the holiday season of 2001, Dave had the chance to
review the first All-In-Wonder
to
incorporate
the Radeon 8500
GPU.
The
All-In-Wonder Radeon 8500DV targeted the video
enthusiast looking for advanced video editing capabilities
as well as exceptional 3D Graphics quality. Powered by
a 240MHz. Radeon 8500 GPU and 190MHz. DDR RAM (380MHz.), the
8500DV proved to be both a
well- |
