   I've seen a 1040ST used on the Canadian-produced show T & T on the
Global Television Network (stars Mr. T).  I believe that something like
"Computers supplied by Atari" is included in the credits too.

   Also, just this past week I saw a 1040 (or a 520STFM) used on the
show "War of the Worlds".  I was running through the channels and 
saw a someone in a dark van typing on one.  Too bad the display was *not*
coming from the ST...

   Now, if we can only get them included on such shows as the Nightly
Business Report, M/L Newshour, or Wall Street Week...:^)
