Can anyone else confirm this configuration for either Space Fury or Star Trek?
I've only seen G-80 boards with the Orator speech chips (I've seen this on
4 Star Trek sets and one Astro Blaster) populated, but this is *very* cool
if there are versions without the Orator!
It looks like the Orator chips were fairly rare (esp. now!), so if we can
work around that that is EXCELLENT news!
