Just an observation :
	On a recent trip to Vancouver, BC I dropped by a store
that was selling Atari ST (i think it was A&B Sound in the downtown
area).  They were selling a very odd creature : 
 
	A 1040 ST Package *marked* 520 ST on the exterior.
	It came with a single sided internal drive and monitor.

	The salesmen claimed that Atari 520 ST had sold
	out and as a fix...Atari had come up with the
	above solution.

	I was fascinated.  Is this some future migration...?
	it makes sense to me.
