Why synchronize your files?
The PowerBook File Assistant allows you to keep the most recent version of a
file or folder on two different computers or disks. The File Assistant mimics
your actions, so if you revise a file that was linked with its copy on another
disk, all changes made to the first file are also made to the second file.
There are three common scenarios in which file synchronization makes
sense:
m using a PowerBook with your desktop Macintosh
m using a PowerBook with network file servers
m using a PowerBook Duo with a Duo Dock
