Guesswork, anti lag and two maps for a Simtek?
Or, rear oil slick eject and front wing machine guns?

If it's a Simtek, it'll be in the standard case!
Not helping are we?
Personally, I wouldn't be able to resist flicking the things to see what happens. If one was anti lag, you'd soon know about it!

LOL

This old woman (bit of a battle-axe TBH) at our work found two "unused" red buttons underneath the receptionist's desk... she couldn't resist... 30mins later, fire brigade turned up ...

You should've seen her head...
