So I bought the Airport Extreme thinking that I would be able to use it to backup my MacBook to a USB drive using Time Machine. It didn't work. I tried the hack but I couldn't get it to wok properly. SO, last week I spent another $300 freekin' dollars on Time Capsule. Then, this week Apple releases a firmware update. If I had waited another week I would have been able to use the original Airport Extreme to do what Apple had told me it was going to be able to do (i.e. backup via Time Machine to a UNB drive)


Anyone else feel like they got ripped off by Apple because of their "unlucky" timing??
