"New to the list. Name is Harry, and I use a Thinkpad 701C with

"hooked up a Logitech EZ-Scan handheld scanner to the Thinkpad and our 
"old APA348 SCSI host adapter. Apparently, the Logitech parallel-port 
""black box" sent power into the host adapter and fried it. It took 
"the purchase & installation of the APA1460A to demonstrate that the 
"Scanner fried the old APA348, but not before we lost the c:\windows
"directory and several others (like FaxWorks) during a re-install.

"Logitech denies that the EZ-Scan power unit is responsible, but that 
"is a totally expected response. 
"
"Anyway, I do love the 701C, and until 2 weeks ago, I've never had any
