Line 10:
Although the project had a projected [[research and development]] cost of $15 billion, its early cancellation led to a final cost just under $3 billion.
The ALS program office differed from others in that it was the only one within the [[Air Force Space Command]]. The office was furnished with [[Macintosh|Apple Mac OS personal computers]] instead of the Command's usual [[Microsoft Windows#Early versions|Microsoft Windows]] systems{{Citation needed}}. This was in part because NASA had already been using Apple computers. The program office pioneered what later became the [[Microsoft Project]]{{Citation needed|reason=The Wikipedia page for Project does not mention ALS or the USAF|date=July 2021}}.
