I believe that I got the first external cassette drive for the PET on the west coast. Only used it a very few times. The big boost was when I got the floppy disk drive. I could do anything!
That must have been a expensive piece of gear at the time.
In the mid-to-late 80s, my school still had a lab of 10 or so PETs. All connected to the same dual floppy unit. I remember the teacher would tell half the class to save their work, then flip the floppy over for the rest of the class.
