> New entries:
> * PET 200 (with pictures, thanks Per Olofsoon, Marko Makela)

The 200 is a rebaged 8032SK

> * P500 and B500 now separate entries (thanks Larry Anderson,
> Hans Franke, with pictures)

Somm corrections/additional informations:
The B500 has _NO_ joystick port on the back, althrough the port
hardware is on board. There is also _NO_ detatchable keyboard.

Also the B500 was never released (not official nor inofficial).
My guess ist that my unit is a prototype unit released only for
matrketing purpose and/or development, like the P500s found in
the US. ALthorough the board is basicly the board of an B128/256,
the datecodes are just older than any known (to me) B128 and my
ROMs are a manual made pigy pack version of ROM/EPROM combinations.
