(weird, why is ordering a new computer so scary? ...afeared of the inevitable set up hassle, wire tangle nightmares, configuration times and brain breakers ahead.. yes even with Mac.... Iīm afraid I will be back here.)

Prophetic words or self fulfilling prophecy?
Picked up iMac yesterday, been mainly going since.
The Time Capsule is not compatible with our router. Which we need for the home phone to work. Hours and hours of endless updating for nought. The Apple support goons speak only Swedish ( I donīt) here in Norway, and refuse to do English.
I know enough Swedish to understand that I am a fool not to have done the first backup with an ethernet cable (how the **** was I supposed to know if nobody told me) and since I have a Telenor router they canīt help me.

Called the shop and informed them I was loading the whole thing in the car and taking it back to them.
Was told that Jamil would call me back in a jiffy.
He did, 6 hours later.

Sorted the time machine and advised me to take an Apple course. Which I had already tried to enroll in but theyīre done for the summer.
