On today’s video we are going to check out Shiru8bit’s retrocomputing "Back To The PET” PETSCII graphics and chiptunes CB2 sound demo running on my vintage Commodore PET 2001-N computer using the BIT Zeal Stupid PET Tricks module and my PET2SD by The Future Was 8-Bit.

The Back To The PET demo was originally made for the PET 4032 since that has 32KB of memory and a piezo speaker, however since I upgraded my PET 2001-N to 32KB memory and use the Stupid PET Tricks module that allows me to connect an external speaker, I can enjoy the CB2 sound and run this demo.

I bet Jack Tramiel founder of Commodore Business Machines (CBM) and Chuck Peddle never imagined the Personal Electronic Transactor computer having a program like this run on it back in 1977-1978.

This amazing Commodore PET demo "Back to the PET" was released at the CAFe 2022 demoparty held October 21st - 23rd 2022.

The Stupid PET Tricks module lets you do stupid (fun) tricks with your PET. This module adds joysticks and sound. Play games with beautiful PETSCII graphics. Listen to the wonderful CB2 sound. Select the WiFi option and add a modern WiFi modem allowing you to connect to the internet and "dial" into BBSes.
