Except for the Zip GS.  The Zip GS has the option of not following
the control panel firmware and staying on all the time.

This is good if you don't have any 5.25" floppy drives or 800k
3.5" floppy drives.  The SuperDrive controller, in 1440k mode,
can take a Zip GS setting of "Control Panel Follow" delay set
to off.

The benefit is that access to the hard disk drives improves
considerably on a Zip GS system this way because the Zip
GS does not turn itself off before an access.  Try it!

The TWGS design automatically accelerates hard drive
access, so this is not an issue with the TWGS.
