Yes, I love the case design of the PET.  It looks just so retro and '80s
futuristic if you get my meaning...

I designed that tounge-in-cheek flowchart as a kind of catharsis having
just spent the last three weeks, firstly fixing my Apple II+ which was a
non-starter on checking (a faulty F8 ROM in that case) then followed by the
next unit I tested, whose 74LS500 in the video circuit failed after about 5
mins.  I'm almost afraid to turn on any more...but then...Schrodinger's cat
and all that.   I need to know!
