Teaser quotes:
"In the latter days it got down to where a game would sell for two weeks, three weeks, and then it would die."
"It was like the boys hadn't discovered girls yet and my job was to keep them from doing that ... Whatever it took to keep these guys off the streets and away from alcohol and women, it would keep them busy, you know? Keep them programming."
