I read an article in this newsgroup suggesting that it was cheaper by ~$200 to upgrade a 520 to 1Meg than to buy a 1040. My question is, is there any reason to buy a 1040? Aren't there some advantages to the layout, or ports, or something that make the price difference worthwhile? Or should I just laugh all the way to the bank (heh) and get a 520?
