I had my brother returned his Time Capsulte to Apple and the "genius" pressed the reset button and told him it was "likely fixed" and to "try again". This was a wasted drive of 140 miles to accomplish nothing. When he returned with it, it took 3 hours to get the Wifi working, and then the HD was bungled and HOT, HOT, HOT. My experience with Time Capsule has been nothing but a pain. The differential between expectation and reality is a chasm as wide as Vista. Time Capsule is a Black Hole. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
