Atari earned more than a billion dollars in 1981, and helped Warner revenues reach $3.2 billion. By this time, Bushnell was gone — a disagreement with management over the pricing of Atari’s 2600 home console was the final straw, but due to a contract clause stating that he’d get no money if he quit, he merely stopped doing any work until he was eventually fired, and then collected $100,000 a year for four years.
