[Packet] GPS power???

[KD7JYK]

Who is powering their Motorola Oncore GPS and active antenna from the
regulated 5 VDC provided through the Serial, Parallel, PS/2 or USB ports on
their laptop or desktop PCs?

Any problems?

I've been looking over some of the accessories I have for these ports and
they draw from a few mA to as much as 280mA which should be more than enough
to run the GPS and active antenna...

Any ideas?
