I can recall that from some interviews as well. He wanted to go public with stock for the company, but the stock market kept having 'hiccups', so he decided the only way to get the capitol needed was to sell the company. Basically, if it wasn't for the lousy 70's economy of the time, he probably would have kept the company. Who knows? Atari might still be a major player today.
