Found on Slashdot: quote: Apollo On Board Computer Emulator"For those of you interested in Historical Computing and the Apollo manned spaceflights Ron Burkey has created a open source emulation of the Apollo Guidance Computer called vAGC. I use it as my desktop clock of choice. Note it only keeps mission time so after 24 hours you have reset the time :-)."

Alright, help, please, from you geeks out there who know more than I have forgotten.....I have a plethora of boxes that I can install some Linux on.....that would probably run this "space" stuff just fine......should I/can I use a 486 for this to have dedicated just to these space simulations software ? This would make a great piece to add to a public display the next time one is needed for space-publicity...... THANKS ! Gene Bella South Bend IP: Logged | |
