Formed in September 1982 [1] as the Atari NY Lab [2], WCI Labs Inc. was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warner Communications headed by Atari veteran Steve Mayer. It developed computers for Atari, created entertainment software, and worked on projects with other Warner subsidiaries. [3]

In 1984, Warner sold 78% of the company to WCI Labs management. As a result, WCI Labs became the Take One Company, which "[continued] to specialize in a variety of computer hardware designed to deal especially with computer graphics." [4]
