Hello again hardware people.  Many thanks to all for the quick and
consistent answer to my question about the color and tint
knobs on the Amiga monitor.  This emboldens me to ask a second question.
When I originally called my local Amiga shop about the color and tint
knob question, I was told that I should bring in the machine.
Well all you folks saved me a lot and time and trouble with doing that.
Now I asked this same fellow on the phone about the fact that
the external disk drive sometimes clicks as though it was trying
to read a disk when it is empty.  He said that this happens sometimes
even with internal drives, and did not seem concerned about it.
Given his lack of knowledge about the color and tint question, I
am now curious to know if anyone knows anything about this, and
what might be done.  (In fact I just put a disk into the external
drive to keep it quiet).

Cheers,
 Seth
