I would like to ask collectSPACE members who are familiar with the subject and time frame what their thoughts are concerning the significance of the Apollo Guidance and Control system, as an early computer and within the structure of the program was, now that we have 50 years of history past by.

I have read and watched many items online about this subject, but would appreciate the thoughts and feedback of people who understand the capabilities and requirements of the system, and who are aware of its faults, flaws and features that impacted each mission.

Or maybe an opinion on the Saturn Launch Vehicle Digital Computer compared to the AGC?
