I have a Mac at home, and one at work, and must have things like scrapbooks, notepads, and calendars on BOTH machines (i.e., I need to be able to add to my calendar whether I'm home or at work), and every once in a while I'll forget to copy my calendar/notepad/scrapbook from my hard drive before I leave work. I go home, update my calendar on the Mac at home..... Now I either have to lose any events I entered into my calendar at work the previous day, or forget what I entered at home the previous night. The suggested "solution" above would work GREAT for me, so if you know of anything even REMOTELY like it, drop me a line (E-Mail, of course, no need to force everyone else to hit 'n'). > >Andre Graber >Inst.for.Operations Research >ETH >8092 Zuerich >Tel ++41 1 256 40 21 >FAX ++41 1 69 39 73 >e-mail : ...mcvax!cernvax!ethz!agraber Michael A.
