I've got the chance to buy a Commodore Pet 8032 and was wondering what the best SD solution is for the machine?

The PetSD seems to have sold out but there's an email address on the website so it might be possible to track one down?
PetDisk seems like it might be the way to go and is tested on the 8032.
Is the Flyer Internet Modem worth considering?

Has anyone got any experience with any of them, or are there alternatives?
 
I have the PetSD, PetDisk, and the Flyer. I haven't tried the Flyer on my 8032, but I think the PetSD is the premiere option. The PetDisk is also quite nice, but it uses a file/folder structure and is not capable of using disk images.

Hope that helps some. :)

I'm glad it helped. :) Most PET software doesn't require disk image support, but there are a few new pieces of software that do (like Zork). One neat thing about the Flyer is that there is an IRC client available for the PET that works with it. If you don't need the disk image support then the PetDisk is a wonderful product.
