Everybody Believes In Innovation Until They See

In 1980, Atari Was Bringing In Around Two Billion Dollars In Revenue And Chuck E. Cheese's Some Five Hundred Million. I Still Didn't Feel Too Bad That I Had Turned Down A One-third Ownership Of Apple - Although I Was Beginning To Think It Might Turn Out To Be A Mistake.

I Founded Atari In My Garage In Santa Clara While At Stanford. When I Was In School, I Took A Lot Of Business Classes. I Was Really Fascinated By Economics. You End Up Having To Be A Marketeer, Finance Maven And A Little Bit Of A Technologist In Order To Get A Business Going.
