Well, if it wasn't the stash of Commodore stuff last week, one of my students surprised me this morning with a gift to say 'thanks for helping out' in the form of an old Sportstronic game! No power plug, and no idea if it even works - but its in the original box, with instructions (in fantastic condition) and the date of purchase on the warranty says 2 Jan 1978...
He knows I'm collecting old stuff, so its a nice gesture. And its one more for the new 'collection' I seem to have started building up. In case anybody wants to see some piccies, here's the link.

I guess this just needs a 2 pin plug attached to it? Anybody know how safe it would be to wire on a plug and see if it runs? Should I prepare for a big bang and a puff of smoke?
