Open Airport Utility. Click Manual Setup. Click Advanced. Click MobileMe. Put in your information.

Now, when you go to another Mac outside of your home, log in to mobile me, and you can see the drive in your sidebar as if you were at home. (if your disk is already shared that is)

This feature is made to set-up and go when used on a machine running OS X. I'm sure it's possible to get it going on a Windows PC, but it would require a lot of tinkering, especially if you're behind a corporate firewall at work.
