We went to Atari

August 10, 2013
So we went to Atari and said, 'Hey, we've got this amazing thing, even built with some of your parts, and what do you think about funding us? Or we' ll give it to you. We just want to do it.

-- Steve Jobs on attempts to get Atari and H-P interested in his and Steve Wozniak's personal computer.
