Check out the mp3 if you are a huge 7800 mark. They explain the 7800's history, why the Tramiel's need to be punched in the gut, what went wrong, and all of the cool things that Atari had planned for the Prosystem.
This was the post by Albert at Atari Age.com:
Applefritter.com has posted recordings of the talks that took place at the Vintage Computer Festival just over a week ago in Boston. One of the talks covered the Atari 7800's 20th Anniversary, and was presented by Curt Vendel of Atarimuseum.com and Steve Golson, one of the original designers of the 7800. The presentation and accompanying slide show covered the history of GCC (the company that designed the 7800 for Atari, as well as many 7800 games), Atari, and the 7800. Sitting in the front row of the audience were 10 former GCC employees, who provided additional insight during the presentation. You can listen to the full talk here, and can find more talks from the Vintage Computer Festival here.
