ANTIC Interview 65 - Steve Mayer, 400/800 Designer - a podcast by Randy Kindig, Kay Savetz, Brad Arnold

Steve Mayer, Atari 400/800 Designer

 

Hello and welcome to an interview-only episode of Antic, the Atari 8-bit computer podcast. Today I’m honored to be interviewing someone who was involved in the original design of the Atari 400 & 800 computers, Mr. Steve Mayer.  Steve worked with Joe Decuir (whom I interviewed in an earlier episode), Jay Miner, and others on the Candy & Colleen project and that’s our main focus for this interview.  However, Steve also was involved in much more, including involvement in the creation of Cyan Engineering, later known as the Grass Valley Think Tank and was involved in the creation and design of the 2600.

 

This was recorded on April 18, 2015.
