Doug Macrae founded General Computer Corporation in 1981 with Kevin Curran whilst still an MIT student and would go on to employ many other MIT students, including previous guests Steve Golson and Jonathan Hurd. We talk with Macrae at length about the disruptive business model and general chutzpah of the fledgling company, and what can only be described as GCC playing high-stakes chess with the biggest videogame company in town, Atari Inc. They went on not only to make such inventive arcade titles as Food Fight and Quantum for Atari, but also created one of the most successful coin-ops of all time for Bally Midway, Ms. Pac-Man.
