1. Elbox responded to the Hyperion's offer (Warp3D V4).
2. Hyperion sent their offer to Elbox on Friday 25 May at 22:29 CET.
3. Elbox Computer is a fully-fledged business, with the office working from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in week days only.
4. When Hyperion sent their offer, it was clearly beyond Elbox's office hours.
5. Elbox contacted Hyperion on Monday 28 May after reading their offer and consulting it in a company meeting held specifically for this purpose.
6. Elbox is eager to make an agreement with Hyperion and co-operate for creating more high-performance software for Amiga.
7. Please note that as early as in August 2000 Elbox transferred to the Warp3D team (at Hyperion's request) a FREE developer's Mediator PCI 1200 along with the Mediator SDK.
8. During the meeting in WOA 2000, Hyperion expressed their readiness to support Elbox hardware, which we believe was also due to the transfer of free hardware as Elbox' support for Hyperion. 3D support is necessary for users and conducive to equally both software and hardware businesses growing.
9. We are sure co-operation is possible and necessary and evolving and we hope it will come to a fruitful end, especially with Hyperion proposing making 3D drivers as a commercial product. This gives a chance to future developing 3D drivers also for other modern graphic cards, for which ELBOX has now been preparing 2D drivers.

Elbox continues to make every effort to make sure Mediator PCI - now being developed into the full 4-type line: Mediator PCI 1200, Mediator PCI ZIV, Mediator PCI ZIII, Mediator PCI 4000 - always remains the best PCI busboard for Amiga computers and always enjoys the best software support.
