RCR Episode 174: Atari facts and 8-bit FAQs

Panelists: Michael Current, Paul Hagstrom, and Jack Nutting

Topic: Atari facts and 8-bit FAQs

In an unusual episode, Jack and Paul are joined by Michael Current around the same physical table, talking about things largely related to the early development of Atari and Michael’s Atari timeline and Atari 8-bit FAQ. There was a single microphone in a not particularly well noise-isolated room, so enjoy the party-like atmosphere.

Panelists: Earl Evans (hosting), Paul Hagstrom, Jack Nutting, and Carrington Vanston

Topic: Where might you have wanted to go today?

Imagine an alternate universe in which Atari, Commodore or even Apple had become the predominant computer architecture, rather than WinTel. How might have computing looked different in the 80s and beyond?
