Re: For those who think we need more power out of the control system...

To quote some rather frightening specifications:

Code:
 Apollo Guidance Computer	ATmega168
 $15M                          $2
 55W Power                     0.055W Power
 ~1 MIPS?                      20 MIPS
 70 lbs.                       0.0022 lbs.
man that took forever to format.
I love that little chip (the atmega)
