The add is in the January 1989 issue of  STart on page 95.  It is an add for
Computer Repeats, Inc.  There phone number is 1-800-347-3457.  I just called
them and asked what the 1040+ is.  It is a 520st with a 1meg upgrade and
an RF modulator so you can run it off your TV. 

I also asked if they sell the Mega 2 and they do.  The  mono system is 
 $1299 and the color is $1499.  Something just occured to me.  I have been
assuming that the Mega 2 will run either color or mono depending on what
you connect to it but can it run either by simply change conections?
