rockman_x_2002 Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 (edited) Wasnt sure quite where to post because I didnt see it posted elsewhere yet, but felt it was important news for our community. Source article: http://fortune.com/2018/05/26/atari-co-founder-ted-dabney-dead/ RIP and God speed, Mr. Dabney. You started a technological revolution that you couldnt have begun to imagine at the time. You will be missed.

jaybird3rd Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 RIP, and condolences to his family. I'm very glad that Mr. Dabney took the time in recent years to finally tell his story, not only to Curt Vendel and Marty Goldberg—who interviewed him extensively for "Atari Inc.: Business is Fun"—but also to us here on the AtariAge forums (he joined in 2010 and was on and off periodically thereafter). Here is a welcome thread that I started, eight years and one month ago: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/162122-atariage-welcomes-ted-dabney/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
