I am fairly certain that ADB probably will not be able to provide enough power, but I don't have complete specs for ADB so i couldn't be sure. all I know is that the 5V rail on USB runs a fairly nice USB LED lamp (Which i happened to break by having it fall behind my desk) so I have a surplus of USB powered LEDs. The price on one of these mice is quite high for me to just mod it, but I would be willing if i find one for under $15 shipped i guess. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Vintage Macs group.
