Hi there. I'm having some difficulty deciding which ST to purchase. I thought that the 1040 was the machine to buy, but I would prefer to have the power supply and drive external to the system. So I thought, I might as well get a 520 with a double sided drive. But I've been told that upgrading the 520 isn't so easy due to the lack of space inside the case. Can anyone shed any more light on this subject? I'm particularly interested in the ability to expand the system, especially along the lines of extra RAM, and the graphics co-processor (when it becomes available). Any help would be appreciated.
