Programma International, Inc. was one of the first personal computer software publishers. Established in the late 1970s by David Gordon, it published a line of approximately 300 games, programming utility, and office productivity products for the Apple II, Commodore PET, TRS-80 and other personal computer systems. Hayden Publishing bought Programma International in 1980 and the company went out of business in 1983.
