I've always found it to be great. I move it around a lot and take it to friends houses and such and it's fine. It just makes a loud noise when TM is backing up.

Maybe you got lucky ;)

Both of mine have a glitch where the powercord is plugged into the drive, its to much of a travel in the adapter so it tends to turn itself off, the same with the USB cable, it tends to get pushed into the enclosure so i have to fetch it from time to time, and there is some other minor issues. Gonna order a WD mybook to now that the prices have dropped.

(its to late to write in proper english, sorry ;) )

I just ordered a 750GB MyBook. I'm naughty you see. I get loads of three month trials on Lovefilm, rent the latest films, rip them to my PC and then send them back (and the cycle starts again). Now my computer is full of DVD rips so I need more space. My little MyBook should be here on the 23rd, so I'm wrapping it up for a Christmas present, from me, to me.

It's a shame you're so far away or I would you sell you it if you wanted :(

okay:

$899 for the NEW Apple display
$1599 for the NEW Apple macbook
$599 for the 1st gen iphone (if bought new)
$69 Mighty Mouse
$79 Wireless Keyboard

= $ 3,512.69 including tax!!!

I know a lot of people are asking you kids how you got some of these things but, Seriously how did YOU buy those things?

As you see in my sig I have a lot but I have 2 jobs and I am 20 and in college using it for graphic design, but in high school? What could you possibly NEED this much high end equipment for in high school ?
