There are several good books about the PET. "Osbourne's Guide To The Pet"
seems to be a good one, but I haven't read it.
The PET 2001 is nearly equal to the CBM 30xx computers. The major difference
is, that the PET has a built-in cassette-recorder, and the CBM 30xx hasn't.
(There seems to be a minor bugfix to, but I'm bot so sure about that..)
So nearly evry information for the CBM 30** is fine with the PET too
Oh yes : If you want to have software : check out
ftp.funet.fi/pub/cbm/pet (I'm not so sure about these subdirs..)
BTW: The PET 2001 with 8 K RAM was the only 2001 available in Europe (at least
that's what this book I'm currently reading (dutch) says).
