I have a VERY noisy internal drive in my 1040st which is about 2 1/2 years old now. Is there any way to quiet it? Will putting a light oil on the "bars" that the head slides on help? Is this bad for the drive? The drive also seems to be "sluggish". Any suggestions? NEWS: I don't know if any of you have heard about this or not, I haven't seen any messages about it yet. ST World says that at CeBIT89 Atari announced the new MEGA ST1... I don't know if this means that they're droping the 1040st and the 520st or not, it didn'tay. Also a ST compatable laptop, and a PC laptop. - Now to see if any of these make it to the U.S. market. dustin baughman vancouver, wa ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +Please, please, please, let meeme, let me, get what I + +want this time....Lord knows, it would be the first time... + + The SMITHS + ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
