As crude as the shuttle looks mechanically, the software it runs is about as close to perfect as any piece of software ever written.
This is a great article on how the software that runs the shuttle:

The technology in the shuttle looks like something out of Star Trek in the '60s. Unbelievable.

The Shuttle was designed in the 1970s. For much of it's lifetime, it didn't even have glass cockpit instrumentation.
