Nolan Bushnell Paid $7000 for the breakout game.

Woz's design was not so complex that no one at Atari could figure out how it worked.

"Bushnell dangled a financial reward. Payment was to be based not upon delivery of the new game, but on how efficiently it could be manufactured."

"Woz needed no excuse to bury himself in a design project - especially ont that put a premium on a solution using the fewest number of chips."

From "APPLE: the inside story of intrigue, egomania, and business blunders"

Ironically, Wozniak's design was so complex that no one at Atari could figure out how it worked. They had to redesign the entire game so it could be tested.
