   I don't think he was really dumped. Irving sacked him. Not sure how that's   
   possible, and what the actual reasons were. Some say because he wanted to bring   
    his sons in. Irving said he was worried about JAck's health, and didn't think   
   he was the man to take the company to beyond a billion.   
      
   Maybe Jack planned to build Atari up to the point where he could buy our   
   Commodore and get his creation back. Something akin to the Steve Jobs story,   
   where he was ousted but found a back route back in.
