Perhaps this is simply Old Data? That is to say, were the 560X/Z the most
power-hungry model for their time? From what I've seen, there are 34W
adaptors and there are 57W adaptors [or 37 and 54?]. Perhaps it just
needs the extra juice?

My 770ED's adaptor is the higher-cap variety and is rated positive "tip"
[center barrel], 16V, 3.36A [54W out, 120W in].

failing
    730T on its way, just for fun
