I dont know about the 1040, but when I first got my 520 i used it to give a
demo at our universities freshers fair.

It ran the slide show program solidly for about 6 hours without a problem.
With the slide show the disk drive motor is permanently on, but of course
it only reads, not writes, the disk.
