I am looking into buying a portable computer to use on the road,
but since the Mac portable is so expensive and my needs on the
road do not require all the features of a Mac, I am thinking that
a small and cheaper portable will suffice.  On the other hand I
use Macs at the office and at home so I would like to be able to
transfer data between the Mac and the portable with ease.

What are the most common portable that do that and what is the
common procedure (software as well as hardware) that lets the
portable and the Mac exchange data?

Please respond to the net since I believe that this is an issue that
others would like to know about beside myself.

Thanks for your comments.
