One of the PETs I have was either never used or was repaired by 
Commodore and then never used as it is still in a sealed plastic bag 
with a blue Commodore logo all over it.  I had to throw away the 
original box it came in as it was blackened and decomposing from 
having been wet by the person I got it from. :(

Cheers,
