520?  hmmmm.  What about the 1040?  I think I would like to change cases.
Considering I have already had a heat problem with my Supra, and I plan
an memory upgrade + blitter chip, having a fan and and surge protector
built in would be some nice insurance.  Also, a detachable keyboard would
make my desk more usable that just a computer stand.

Unfortunately, some things that I have read in CN (ages past) have yet to 
come true.  They *are* a quality publication, but they don't always verify
the content of their articles.  It seems that they receive articles from
guest authors all over the country, and they don't have the resources to
play super-sleuth.

Has anyone heard about this from a different source?  Especially for the
1040?  I would feel better if I had an address and a date.  There's alot
of vapor floating around out there...
