Hello MAACA,

My wife is a High School teacher in Ottawa (Science, Math, and Computer Studies), and she has decided to do a 2 month unit on Pinball machines in her Computer Engineering course...She feels EM machines would be great interactive tools to teach about circuits, fuses, resistors, bulbs, relays, etc...As for solid state machines, they might be a little too complicted because of the specialized computer chips, and the school has old junker computers to mess around with for that.

She ran the idea past her department heads and they are totally for it. They are looking for some working/partially working EM games, cosmetics are not important at all....this is also a Catholic High School so I don't think Dave Christensen games would go over very well

Anyways, she needs around three EM machines and can pay, at tops, $200 each for them. However, it is tax season right now, and if you wanted to donate any machines they are able to issue you a charitable receipt.

Thanks,
Greg H
