HEAVY as LEAD, and build for a nuclear war, IMHO.  Pain to store too, as
they're huge.

  Wow wouldn't mind having one, as they are the
grandaddy to the VIC-20
 and C=64 machines.  Some VIC/64 software is directly useable, other
 software takes minor tweaks.  Now you'll need the matching floppy
 drives, and they use that (typical commodore offbeat) IEEE interface.  I
 guess use the common steps troubleshooting the p/s. 
I've got a PET 2001-16B myself, and a C2N datasette. Works great.

To the original poster, yes, the power supply and/or fuse are likely
suspects. PETs are pretty tough systems.
