Hello all...  I've been a satisfied 1040ST owner for about a year, and am
thinking of upgrading to a Mega 2.  I have a couple of questions:

- Do the current Megas have the latest TOS?  Or is it still some temporary
  ROM set with most of the pre-Mega bugs present?

- Are the TOS ROMs socketed?

- What are the compatibility issues?  I've heard of some programs bombing on
  Megas.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
