Look at a vintage Mac running all of those 6LQ6's with that large transformer. That was MODERN tech back in 1969! Do you really believe that 6 MODERN solar panels would run that beast today?
Come on dude.
Ummmmmmmmm....not really. State of the art technology in the space program and the military was way ahead of consumer electronics. And, I believe the solar panels were only supplimentary to generator power and battery storage. They didn't run on solar alone.

Where's Pete?
