How powerful was the Apollo 11 computer? (Download Squad)

Jul 31st 2009 12:32PM Thanks for this article! This just goes to show the amount of computing power available to the average user is staggering. I however, I am dismayed to see Microsoft continue to battle Moore's law. This article really puts into perspective the amazing amounts of computations MS software must squander per second to cause Outlook 2007 to perform worse than Office 2003. New software has no grounds to demand higher hardware specs and deliver virtually the same functionality.
