My first PET

[[Chris]]

Yesterday while working at a e-waste event, someone dropped off a PET 4032 for recycling. Thankfully my co-worker quickly spotted it and set it aside for me, as he knows I am into vintage computers. After taking it home, I did a quick test and it came to life. The only issue it had was that some of the keys weren't working, but after cleaning up the contacts, all the keys now work correctly and gave the PET a good cleaning.

Can't beat free! It's the 4032 model of the PET.

Nice snag. Looks like you were able to clean it up real nice.

Congratz.
FYI, that specific model is known as a "FAT 40" because of it's 12" screen. Earlier versions of the 4032 had a 9" screen.
It's also a universal board PCB which means it can be converted to 80 columns with some jumpers, a couple of extra video ram chips and a different edit rom.
That's why there are some chips missing in the middle of the board. With one PCB, Commodore could produce either a 4032 or 8032 just by how they populate the board.
