    Why Mediator?
    Do you need your Amiga to display crystal-clear image up to 2048x1536x32 @ 75Hz? Do you want your favourite games to run in accelerated graphics? Take a Voodoo-family PCI graphic card and enjoy its 2D and 3D performance!

    Do you want to use a variety of devices connected via the USB port?
    Simply install the Spider USB 2.0 High-Speed PCI card into the Mediator slot and explore the world of the newest USB devices such as mice, keyboards, tablets, joysticks, printers, scanners, webcams, digicams, flash card readers, zip drives, floppy disk drives, harddisks, memory sticks, ethernet adapters and audio adapters, GPS location devices or finger print readers!

    Care for superb high-quality music?
    Just install the inexpensive, quality Sound Blaster sound PCI card into the Mediator slot and play your MP3 files at 16 bit resolution!

    Want fast network connections to surf the net?
    Put a low-cost RTL8139 Fast Ethernet 100Mbps PCI card into the Mediator slot and connect your computer to the network!

    Do you want to watch and capture your favourite TV programmes?
    With a TV tuner PCI card you can watch TV, but also connect a TV-SAT tuner, a camcorder or a digital camera. Although the full TV image resolution runs at 30 fps in the PIP window on your Workbench screen, it does not use the Amiga processor's time at all!
