I was ready to buy one until I found out it was missing this important innovation.
A number of routers costing 1/3 the price include this important feature.
 
Are you using your own home-made router table?

Since you're in Sweden, you have access to the CMS system. The CMS insert for the OF2200 has very good 'from the top' height adjustment.
 
As Iv'e written before, I ordered the CMS when it was first released here and was far from impressed.  I fitted a router-raizer to my OF2000 on a phenolic plate and sent off for the Leigh LS system with all the goodies.  My homebuilt set up cost more than the CMS but is far more flexible. I even break it down and take it to the jobsite when needed. No regrets. 
 
Got any pictures, William?

I have the OF2000 and I have been thinking about the Router Raizer to use it in a table. The RR is highly underrated, IMO.
 
I spent a bit of time on the phone with the Routerraizer designer last year, he likes to talk and will help talk you through the steps for mounting.
As far as he knew, I was the first to mount the RR to an OF2000, although the Of2000 is mechanically identical to the older model Mafell LO65 and the UK distributor said he sold a RR to someone with one of those and the mounting procedure should be similar. Mounting requires drilling out the base with a drillpress and the tolerances need to be very close. There are no instructions provided for the installation to the OF2000. The process was not easy.
Ill work on a getting a picture, but be patient- I just got a Mac after my PC died last week and I'm starting from scratch here.

If you need any help doing what you want just ask.

One of the really good point with regard to pics. is the integration with Flickr, after setting up your account (free) it is a one click process from iPhoto.
 
My hunch is that you are going to find that setting up your Mac PC is much easier and more reliable than with a WinTel PC.  I know very little about PCs, and have often been helped by others on this forum -- thanks, Gents!!  For Christmas I bought my wife the basic Mac laptop, and was able to setup up everything for her without visiting a single forum or making a single call for technical support, and I am not a Mac user.  To test it, I visited several web sites including this forum to make certain the photos and videos would work.  To enable viewing of Windows media formats, I downloaded the addendum to QuickTime from MS's site.  To my surprise, when looking for a PPT viewer, MS has posted through their on-line technicians a recommendation that Mac owners download OpenOffice which I did, along with RealPlayer.  So far, no issues or problems, except that MS prepared PPT slide shows with synchronized sound lose that sound track when played using the Impress viewer within OpenOffice.  Several of the internet videos I test viewed had a higher resolution display on her Mac than on my Dell PC, both of which have Intel Core Duo processors.

Thanks for the advice, Dave (sound of screeching carbon steel)
From what I can tell, after receiving advice from two continents, my problem has mostly to do with having purchased my mac used, as the original owner had not removed all of his "info" and -passwords-  as he had claimed.
With the intention of keeping the forum focused, I will take advantage of your advice in the form of a PM.
