Hey all,
I am strongly thinking about buying a Time Capsule to back up my MBP and My iMac, as well as my Girlfriends 2 Windows Machines (*Shudders*)
I think that if i go ahead I will just get a refurb one from the apple refurb store, as they are much much cheaper. Firstly would anyone discourage me from doing this?
Secondly, I was wondering if anyone any experience using a TC with more than 1 mac as well as windows and how easy it is to set up?
Finally, I was just wondering if having the TC would mean getting rid of my cheap Thomson router that came free with my Broadband, and using the TC as my router, or if I should just plug the TC into the existing router and just use it as a wireless HDD and not a router?
Any help would be great!
Thanks all
Adam
