Chris: You are so cool for that. I know I ask a lot of good and a lot of dumb questions, some of which get answered, some of which do not, and that's ok. But, I really appreciate your coming back to answer them. That's very kind. Thank you, and to all who do this kind of thing.

The Time Capsule is intended to be a storage space for your time machine backups. It also serves as a wireless access point and print server. For me, I have an old PowerMac G4 in the basement running OSX 10.5 which I dropped an extra drive into and use like a time capsule. It's also my print server so my wife can print from her laptop via wireless to the printer in the basement which doing backups of the same laptop to the extra hard drive via time machine. Seems to work pretty well but now I need to upgrade my wireless router to 802.11N to get the backups running a bit faster. CB Carolyn wrote: gee, I've never thought much about this. I have my MacBook Pro,, an iPhone, and a Nano. My daughter has a first generation iPod touch, and a Macbook Pro. So, altogether we have 5 between two of us. I've tried to get my husband to convert, but he's watched me try to learn, and he has zero frustration tollerance. So, he's probably going to stick with the PC side of things. Anyhow, just a little fun to compare notes. Does anyone have a time capsule? And am I right assuming it's kind of like Apple's version of an external hard drive? Thanks.

I thought I had a lot of apple products at five!

I'd be afraid of such a beast as nothing I do with a computer could possibly warrant that much power. So, if I had that sort of money, I suppose I would keep my current stuff and put a big down payment on the Lexus cross-over which fits our lifestyle of fishing, camping, hunting, traveling long distances with two dogs and is a bit bigger and a lot more comfortable than our seven year old toyota Matrix.

I dare any one of you to go to an Apple Store online, build your own Mac from the ground up and post the results. The Mac of your dreams. The Mac you've always wanted, but know that you need to be a billionaire to afford. That Mac that would make you almost drool with excitement, but you want to scream from a mountaintop because you can't have it. Come on. We've all done it. YOu know you want to do it. I do, too. At least, you can live out your dream for a little while, until it is time to click the "Checkout" item. Don't tell me that you aren't curious enough to at least go configure your own mac to your heart's content. What is your goal? A Mac to the price of $17000? Even more than that? Go on. Isn't it just tempting to feel like a billionaire for once? Of course, your dreams will be crushed, but you know, that happens. And if either one of you people decide to buy it, you're lucky. And if you do, let me know! Warm regards, Nic P.S. THis idea just popped into my head. :) Skype: Kvalme MSN Messenger: [email protected] AIM: cincinster yahoo Messenger: cin368 Facebook Profile My Twitter -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
