toldorknown: eyeteegee: 2. K. RAM. More detailed specs on the Apollo Guidance Computer here. One of the “Interesting Web Sites” linked to from that site is the Apollo Operations Handbook. (photo via) “5-10 times more computing power”? Attention whoever edited that title: “times” is not an acceptable replacement for “orders of magnitude”. I think my early eighties Sinclair ZX Spectrum had 5-10 times the computing power of the Apollo 11 computer.
