Let's get this open. My attempt at some form of commentary will demonstrate why I'm not a YouTuber. 😄
In summary, I seriously doubt this is working (someone drew an 'X' on the underside with a marker for starters) but I have fixed loads of these boards. Very happy with what I'm seeing though.

It's arrived! Let's unbox...
Some very good packaging from the BHF shop in Leeds, seems one key got broken in transit though. It all smells a bit fusty, but we can deal with these things.
Two original PSUs, an interesting RAM Delta joystick, and a mystery DB-15 to DIN cable (WTF is that off?)
