Now they seem to have have found a SCRAPPED Apollo
guidance
computer and am rebuilding the missing pieces.
Wow. What a great site (and that guy has mad skills, everything from
repairing old Teletypes, through designing boards, to repairing analog
stuff). Just 'wasted' a good chunk of the morning reading back through
it; tons of really neat things (including recovery of the very first
FORTH, along with a lot of Diablo drive - from the Alto - repairs).
As a shortcut, here:

is the backstory on the AGC; about 1/3 of the way down, in "Restoring an
Apollo Guidance Computer, part V".
