Yes, but the developers of Activision's games were also the company owners, at least at first. The only difference between the original Atari and Activision models was that Activision put their developers names prominently in the manual. What I really wanted to know was about early personal computer publishing arrangements. Sorry I didn't make that clearer. (And thanks to Hugh for his feedback.) -- Lee K.
