MARKHAM, Ontario -- Fabless graphics chip vendor ATI Technologies Inc. said Thursday (August 14, 2003) that it has struck an agreement with Microsoft Corp. to develop graphics technologies for use in Xbox products and services. Xbox is Microsoft's gaming console.
Neither the scope nor the financial implications of the agreement were discussed.
"We selected ATI after reviewing the top graphics technologies in development and determining that ATI's technical vision fits perfectly with the future direction of Xbox," said Robbie Bach, senior vice president of the Home and Entertainment Division at Microsoft, in a statement.
"This agreement cements ATI's position as the prime graphics supplier for the future of the games industry," said K. Y. Ho, ATI's chairman and chief executive officer, in the same statement.
