Honestly.
This thing is pissing me off. I have two perfectly good working WD external harddrives (my book world edition& Passport 120gb) that merrily were used on my pc, but whadya know! No spinning sounds, no disk utility recognition or anything!
This thing also wont sync my better camera, and also my phone (which apparently can sync with macs >,>). It takes forever to be restarted, and configuring my ethernet network (because I have no bloody airport card inside it) took a whole hour, and left me with cables scattered from one end of the house to the other.
So there. I bought a computer that sits there, not willing to connect to any external hdds or printers off my network. It is being as stubborn as ****, and the most amusing thing about it at the moment is that marble game that came preloaded on to it!
Please guys, can you help me out here, because you would of thought a powered usb hub with a Y-split usb cable for double the power would be enough for the simple task of running my WD Passport!
At this stage:
Was it worth the money spent: NO
Does it actually do anything that benefits me: NO
Why do I have to buy one million pieces of software to get up to installing Leopard: I HAVE NO FRIGGING IDEA!
Please guys, make it worthwhile for my mac experience.
Thankyou and goodnight.
