It is kind of hard to use my laptop and desktop when the desktop is here and my laptop is in Wichita. Or if I go to a research library and only take my netbook and leave everything else at home.
Umm.... This in the middle of discussion of how to network computers together? ie. I use ssh / remote desktop / etc. to run 2 geographically separated computers all the time. I currently am working locally and on 3 remote computers. It is definitely a hassle for me to make a local edit of a file, then wait for it to replicate to the cloud, then be pulled down by a remote machine. In my case I use spideroak, and it can take a couple minutes to push even a small edit / new file and then several more minutes to pull that down at the other end. If I'm remotely connected at the time trying to work, that several minutes is a really long several minutes. I guess my next step is to setup a 7x24 fileserver at the office I can remotely work with. (I know how, so no advice needed, just send money for another PC :) I know, in reality I have old PCs hanging around that can do the job, so I have no excuse for not having already done this.).
