I had the pleasure of sitting next to Jack Burness, the creator of the
original Lunar Lander, at a Computer Museum History Center dinner last
year.
He's a Director for a company called Real 3D in Orlando, Florida these
days. He disappeared before I got a chance to talk to him about getting a
copy of the original source code, and asking him if he'd speak at a future
VCF, but I have his contact information.
