My Commodore PET 3032 is still in the cupboard in the back bedroom, together with the "tractor printer". The dual drive floppy disk went to the RAF for some obscure purpose. I remember paying £695 for the PET, £695 for the dual floppy, and £295 for the printer. I became quite adept at writing 6502 machine code to get it to do things.

Then I got a BBC B, and it all went downhill from there. Sideways RAM, and then those scary newfangled hard drives. After that it all became a blur.
