 we are looking for ideas on  introducing some interactive component... ideas
 folks? 
Have a free "Smash the Altair!" day whereby people take swings at an
Altair 8800 suspended from a wire.  It can be a political statement about
the soaring values of old computers.  Of course, in the process you'll be
promoting the higher prices since you'll be having to refill your stocks
of old Altairs from eBay.

 You are a sick person Sellam. I see you have already
had a good swig of that Hg.

Beyond that, games always grab your imagination.  Run old versions of
Hammurabi, Hunt the Wumpus, etc.
