Hey guys im thinking about getting the MBA 11" air ultimate. I already have the MBP 13" i5. I was thinking about leaving the mbp at home or in the office.

So my question:
Is there anyway to keep everything synced between the mba and mbp? applications, files; etc.

Drop Box is #1. Mobile Me and Sugar Sync also an option, lastly a USB HD.

I use Drop Box, money well spent.

I prefer Dropbox over Sugar Sync. I had serious reliability problems with them a couple years back. I don't know if it's improved since, but the data loss was worrying enough that I haven't been comfortable risking it again.

Their advantage over Dropbox is that you can sync any folders between machines whereas Dropbox lets you sync the contents of one folder across any other machines, but once you get used to symlinks it's easy enough to deal with.
