Fair enough... I still want to put it all together and get it working on a PET.
I have one chicklet keyboard with me (originally from Mike), and three
PETs total - one 4032, one static 2001, and one P500... no PSUs,
monitors, cases, etc.  Plenty to play with over the winter.

few projects
to take care of this month, one with a deadline of 4 weeks from now.
