What if some of the PET guys did a PET/CBM thing for at least part of the night. I don't have any of this stuff but was first computer I used before I had my own and wouldn't mind seeing it again. Keeping the P in TPUG is a good thing.

Sounds good to me. I don't have much PET stuff myself, just my 8296 with the RTC chip that I've demoed a half-dozen times already and a boring printer interface.

So if anyone has some PETs or peripherals for show/demo/repair/sale/trade, please bring them.

We could also spend a bit of time testing out the PETs in storage at the church.

And I'm still bringing my Coco ;-)
