Hi all, I am sick of eBay vendors who do not respond to questions from buyers.
The latest is a person whose mailing address has apparently lapsed
and who advertises a Zip drive with power supply and wall plug and which is also,
it seems from the ad, USB equipped. Does this make sense?

It's probably not so silly - in many cases there is not enough current available from the USB port to run the device -
I found that out yesterday with an original ibook and a USB attached 2.5in external drive - Had to plug in the powered hub to make it work.
