The "F" stands for "Floppy", as in a floppy drive in the box. The "M" stands
for "Modulator", a frequency modulator for connection to TV. I haven't seen
(or heard of, until now) a 1040STfm, but all of the 520's I've seen in the
last few months have had that letter designation, a built-in floppy drive,
and a frequency modulator on the motherboard.
