Once you've checked there's nothing loose I suppose there's nothing to be lost by firing it up. Hey, if it does work, there's testement to Hugo and the gangs engineering skills, I can't think of much kit at work that would take a kicking like that and carry on working (even the outside broadcast gear!).

You never know, all you might need is a new case, which I'm sure David could sort you out with, I'd imagine there are a few thoroughly dead units with perfectly good cases.
