Ric:

Sounds pretty cool.

I'm trying to "start off right" this time since we were adding another  
Mac for our business, anyway.  Really like the Time Capsule.

Next step is to get into the Aperture 2 Tutorials and maybe take an  
Aperture 2 class from Apple next cycle.

Thanks a lot for the encouraging info.

works here

iphoto library manager shows me the full library on my external drive  
(Seagate freeagent 500g) attached to the time capsule usb as well as  
my one year library on my internal hard drive.

the trick is, it shows up as a shared disk, not on your desktop like  
one attached directly to your usb port on your iMac. of course, that  
makes it accessible from any other mac on your network also
