Hi!
I only seem to only have time to catch up with me mail once a week or so.
I just found your post to the ClassicCmp list about the PETs. Are they
all gone yet?
Where are you located? Toronto area? Shipping PET stuff would be very
expensive, I think. If I had a friend in Toronto I'd send him over to
grab whatever you've got. :)
The SuperPET is especially nice. A friend of mine has one, with an 8050
or 8250 (don't remember which) and all the language software and manuals.
I've been looking for a BASIC 4 system and DOS 2 or higher disk drive for
a while. All of my PET stuff is more antiquated then the stuff you've got
on the list.
A 4032 and an 8250 would be ideal. I like the small 40-column screens.

This weekend I bought someones entire Commodore
Collection. The reason I
bought the collection was they were unwilling to break it up, so I've got to
find homes for most of these machines.
(I only am keeping one)
- 1 Commodore SuperPET
- 10 CPUs: Commodore 8032, 4032, 4016
- 1 Spare part machine, 2 extra motherboards, ROMs etc.
- 8 Disk Drives: 4040, 8050 and quite a few 8250s (I didn't know these
existed)
- Commodore printers + one daisy wheel
- Commodore Test diskettes, repair schematics + procedures
(including some stuff that never made it to the market)
- Lots of manuals...even an original 1976 MOS Technology 6502 programming
manual in as new condition!
- Lots of software (even some SuperPet stuff)
- Compute magazine from 1980-1983 in as new condition
- Commodore PET Literature
This stuff came out of school computer labs and some stuff when Commodore
Canada shut down.
All the machines seem to work OK...pretty good shape for being close to 20
years old.
Need some TLC...they have various school names in marker on the side.
So I need to find homes for these PCs....they are taking up a lot of room in
my basement.
I'm need to sell them...This list gets first crack at them...I'll consider
interesting
trades too...
My overall want list:
NeXT, KIM-1, A working S-100 and/or CP/M System, Lisa, Tesla coil,
telescopes, night vision gear, GPS, Oscilloscope, Lotus Esprit SE, Robotics
items, or anything other interesting items.
