Jack Tramiel, chairman of #Atari Corp., in 1989, regarding the dominance of PC clones and Macs:

"The machines they make are like cigarettes – they’re bad for you, but an awful lot of people are hooked on using them. They’re expensive and they’re all alike.

"When I talk about a personal computer, I mean personal – a computer for the individual, not for a company. And that means a computer that the individual can afford."
