[game_preservation] 1974 Atari memo by Jobs

[Devin Monnens]

Thanks for the info, guys! Will have to check out Frank's article (it's on
the to-read list, which keeps growing ever-longer...).

So I'm guessing this doesn't tell us anything new or interesting about
World Cup Soccer? (Not that it was a particularly influential title...) Or
Jobs's design abilities at the time?
