The ZipGS had a shaky start but it is quite reliable now. The Transwarp
is a sweaty behemoth and I wouldn't wish it on my enemies.

The Zip is usually faster than the transwarp at the same speed. Adding
cache and upping the speed generally should go hand in hand for best
price/performance (7mhz/8K, 8mhz/16K, 9mhz/32K, 10mhz/64K) -- roughly.
The upgrade prices change depending on availability so don't hold me to
closely to that.
