does anyone have any tips for using two computers? presumably laptop + desktop.

so far i use foxmarks... other than that it is a pain sharing docs.

flash usb key.

i recommend the corsair voyager gt.

and if you're really adventerous... USB key with the OS installed on it.

lucas, do you run your own svn servers or do you have one hosted somewhere?

update: it works very well. clean interface, systray but not too intrusive. 12mb memory used.

Rsync is a good start

SVN is better

I suggest you start looking at an external file server, simply for the fact that I do NOT trust working machines.
