It was thus said that the Great Tony Duell once stated:
Yes, but it would tie them to the mains.
You are seriously suggestingthat the fake aquarium is a portable device?
Why would anyone want to carry one around with them?
Tony, Tony, Tony. This is *America!* You can get a device that attaches
to your vacuum (the one you clean carpets with) to cut your hair [1] (and
the fact that the company that makes it can afford *television* advertising
means there are people here that *buy* this thing). A fake aquarium powered
by a USB port seems tame by comparrison.

motorized USB "Aquarium" [...]
Whule I can see the point of taking power
from the computer for an
interface converter, keyboard, mouse, something like that, wouldn't
it be simpler if devices like the aquarium, light, etc had their own
mains adapters?
