    I don't know about you, but when I turn on the GS, I usually don't know
what I will be doing for during the time it is on.  Since ProTerm 2.2 is one
of the few ProDOS 8 programs I use, I need GS/OS in the background.  If I just
boot into P8, I would have to reboot to use GS/OS.  Besides, my DA's, INIT's,
CDev's, etc. total up to about 1 meg, and I can boot GS/OS and run ProTerm in
about 40 seconds after flicking the power switch.  I love RAMFasts...
