Just in case there are any!
I picked up our first blue-faced PET 2001 last night (we've got a couple of
the black-faced ones already), but it's cosmetically in a bit of a state after
living in someone's garage for years.
I know almost nothing about these machines - are there any particular gotchas
about restoring them (like, "don't touch this bit as all the paint will fall
off") other than the usual stuff that applies to bringing up a new toy for the
first time?
The logic board *looks* healthy enough - it seems to have escaped the
corrosion that's got bits of the case. Isn't there a particular chip (or
several) that's prone to dying in PETs though? Remains to be seen if it'll
power up.
What's software availability like? Any archives of tape data on the 'net
anywhere? (Diags would be great, games would be fun later on :-)
cheers
Jules
