  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: easy to work with

  Weaknesses:still buggy

  Overall Evaluation: I bought time capsule fairly early after the release. It was easy to set up and to configure.However after a while I started getting errors and coudn't do more backups. Looking for solutions I found it's not an isolated problem. and many others have experiencing it.Eventually I deleted the old backups and a lot of other information and started over.Very unreliable, but it's good thinking on apple's part.

  Duration of ownership: 1 Months

  Strengths: Easy set-up, simple networking, saves EVERYTHING!

  Weaknesses:$$ for the amount of space

  Overall Evaluation: I took it out of the box, and it was as easy as just plugging it in. The initial back-up was a little timely (I just left my computer on over night), but my OS X Leopard took care of everything pretty much. I was able to plug my printer into it, and now I can print remotely from any of the computer/laptop in my house (both Macs & PCs). As long as you are willing to throw down the cash, the Time Capsule is definitely worth it.

  Strengths: Works efficiently

  Weaknesses:Took two phone calls to Apple support to setup.Costly

  Overall Evaluation: The easy set up that is promised never materialized. After receiving the Time Capsule, I then spent two hours with three different Apple support techs. Eventually, they were able to get me backing up. It was a matter of having to reset my I.P. address and several other settings. This bit of wizardry was not included in the little booklet of instructions. And, quite possible, you will not have to go through the aggravation that I had to endure. For several weeks now, the Time Capsule is running well, performing regular backups. Note: The initial backup could be quite time consuming, as if is a full backup. The apparatus does get a little warm, and I hope that doesn't cause a problem down the road. I'm not completely convinced that $299 was the best deal. My ProCare subscription has definitely been worth the $$, though.
