Hello all,
A bit off topic for the list, for which my apologies, but I hope there are folk out there who may be able to help (or at least reminisce).
I have inherited from my late father a 1970's Commodore PET 4000 series computer, with Commodore dual disk drive and printer (See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commodore_PET ). It was cutting edge when first bought, and used in his consultancy business for several years, processing shopping survey results. It is accompanied by original manuals, magazines disks etc. It all still works (I haven't tried reading data from a disk, but I'm confident it would do so).
Though it has some sentimental value (I learned BASIC using it in the late 70's) I feel it would serve a better function in a museum or educational resource setting. I would welcome contact details for collections / museums who might like to receive the system as a donation. Swindon Computer Museum (my local likely contact) already have one in their collection.
All best wishes
Edmund Lee
