I just noticed this news:

"On this day 40 years ago, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the Moon. This was quite an achievement for mankind and a key milestone in world history.
To commemorate this event the Command Module code (Comanche054) and Lunar Module code (Luminary099) have been transcribed from scanned images to run on yaAGC (an open source AGC emulator) by the Virtual AGC and AGS project. "

Its kind of cool to see the original source code for Apollo. I wonder if someone feels like writing up an emulator so that you can actually run this code within orbiter, and experience real 1201 and 1202 alarms during the descent.
