General Computer Corporation (GCC) was started in 1981 in Cambridge, Massachusetts, by Doug Macrae and Kevin Curran. The company sold Super Missile Attack, a Missile Command enhancement board, and was later sued by Atari over it. Both parties reached a settlement in which GCC would develop games for Atari and stop selling enhancement boards without permission. GCC later created an enhancement kit for Pac-Man called Crazy Otto. It was sold to Midway and became Ms. Pac-Man.

Today, the company makes Macintosh-oriented print servers.
