Well, ye olde Atari ST is a cracker candidate. I don't know how many times I've brushed my hand over a live ST PSU. :roll: I do enjoy watching Badwolf's videos and note the clever protective cover over the PSU. Between that and electric cattle fences....
Oh yeah, definitely unfriendly those heatsinks.
Also, don't grab the logic board of a Mac Classic when power is on. Not a happy bunny when I did that, and not happy chasing down the blown fuses either.
