Syncronisation (PC & Mac)
Hi all,
OK, I think it's pretty much decided that I'll be getting a new iBook in a month or so, when money comes in and the Jan exams end. I've had it with blue screens on this Time laptop... So, this means I'll be using both a PC desktop and a Mac laptop, and I'll want access to the same documents on both, regardless of where I am.
So, what's the best syncronisation software that can support cross-platform syncronisation? I want to be able to make modifications to documents on either machine, and have the version on the other computer updated too. Ideally, whenever I save, and whenever I come into range of the other computer (i.e. on the same LAN, be it wireless or wired). Oh, and it would be nice if it deleted stuff on the other computer that has been deleted on the first, too.
Any ideas? I'm hoping that this shouldn't be too much to ask, as it should be a fairly common thing to do. But I'm guessing that iSync won't be up to the job...
Thanks in advance.

For me though, i only use cvs for programming, as i do little else. If you have a small number of files, its probably easier to just copy & paste them between samba shares.
