This time around we will start another, probably short lived Let's Code series. It will center around the Commodore PET, the first personal computer made by Commodore in 1977. Even before the VIC20 and C64. It shares a lot of structural similarities, but also has many peculiarities. It does not have any proper graphics support, so we will do a bit of a fancy text based hello world program, using direct screen memory access. We will use the modern, optimizing C compiler named oscar64.
