TORONTO, - ATI Technologies Inc. announced today that IBM has chosen the RAGE Mobility-M mobile graphics accelerator for the new ultra portable, and extra light IBM ThinkPad X Series of commercial notebook PCs.

RAGE Mobility products are already the industry's best-selling mobile graphic accelerators and are used in the current, very successful IBM ThinkPad A Series of notebook PCs.
