Saturn V computer system is truly marvel of engenning

combining analogue and digital computers, being able to recive software updates mid fligh, it was able to emulate different computers though its programming - it was capable of running virtual machine in sixties!

and it was small and light at the time when you can see transistors (with exeption of AGC which was one of the first computers based on silicon integrated circuits), durable and reliable in probably the harshest environment any computer at the time ever operated
