Hello to VCFED. I have been reading the posts about Commodore Pet and the fantastic help given to members who need help.

We first started using a Pet in the 1980's running an accounts preparation program called Auditman. This program was supplied by Computers Services Midlands (CSM) in Birmingham, England, and was a brilliant and easy to use program. CSM was taken over by Sage and we were expecting a Windows version of Auditman. Instead Sage just closed down CSM and abandoned Auditman, and wanted users to switch to their own programs. I still use Auditman today on a Windows 98 laptop as it needs DOS to run.
I don't have the Auditman program disk for the Pet anymore.

One thing I have learned is that the Pet is a very tough and hardy machine and will stand up to fierce abuse.
 
Hello mch and Welcome to the Forum! Its great you were a Pet user and I am sure your stories on them will fit in well here.

Hello from the UK.
Ex. Comms/Electronics/IT Engineer, now retired, started to collect (again) all the old 8bit computers of my youth, including but not limited to: MK14, UK101, BBC B, Ataris, etc.
Recently built a few Z80/6502 systems and looking to collect more. Also acquired a HEKTOR PT502 which I also used when studying TM222 way back in 1984.

Hello Ray and welcome. But it probably would have been best if you made your own introduction thread rather than tag on to this one. Be sure to edit your profile to display where in the world you are located.
 
oops. Senior (very) moment, my confusion started to set in when we stopped using valves and the telegraph system!
