Woz Interview

http://apple2history.org/museum/articles/byte8412/byte8412.html

"I saw a Pong game in a bowling alley. So I went and designed my own. I
designed the Breakout video game for Atari. I was just constantly involved
in electronics as a hobby. At Hewlett-Packard we were pretty much just
designing integrated circuits."

from http://mitglied.lycos.de/deomaki/html/glossary/tz.htm

"Together with Steven Jobs, Steve Wozniak designs the game 'Breakout' for
Atari. Wozniak gets $350 from Jobs, who himself gets $5000 from Nolan
Bushnell. Steve Wozniak never is credited for designing the game together
with Jobs! Years later they are founding 'Apple Computers'. Rumours say,
that their first Apple prototype mostly consisted of Atari parts."
