Phil,
There are two ways to use the Time Capsule.
1. As a repository for the Time Machine files:
http://www.apple.com/support/timemachine/
That folder is names backups.backupdb locally when running to a connected USB or Firewire drive.
That file is a .sparsebundle compressed image file when executed over Ethernet.
2. As a network volume data disk for the random drag-drop of files based on free disk space available.
Mac/PC/Linux folks can access that volume via normal Apple file sharing protocols.
