I Want Candy. Atari's Biggest Mistake Part 3: A Discussion with Curt Vendel

 

In this episode we go into a deep discussion with Atarimuseum.com’s Curt Vendel about what Atari could have been if the Atari 400 was actually released as “Game Player non expandable” instead of as the Atari 400 computer.
