b'
This is an interview episode of Antic, the Atari 8-bit podcast. \\xa0I\\u2019m Randy Kindig and in this interview I sat down with one of the members of the core design team at Cyan Engineering for such projects as the Atari 2600 and the 8-bit computers, Mr. Ron Milner.
\\nRon is currently President of Applied Design Laboratories, but from 1973-1984, as an employee of Atari Inc, he worked at the Grass Valley Think Tank (also known as Cyan Engineering) where they did some amazing stuff, as you\\u2019ll hear in this interview. \\xa0Ron was involved in many pivotal technologies in video games and home computers and was co-inventor of the Atari 2600 video game system.
