Re: GS moving parts?

You've raised good points, especially the fact we're talking about Apple
IIgs machines, after all. Even though you can get them on eBay etc pretty
easily today, that won't always be the case. I'd like to hold-on to what I
have, so the GS will be off when not being used (I wonder how many watts it
uses, anyway, if the machine is idle).
