Drop box is just awesome as you say. It just sits there and does it’s job quietly which is exactly what I want it to do. And the mac/pc cross over is just sweet too, seeing as I exist between both worlds anyway

Windows Live Mesh is an alternative but as I found out much to my expense last year, it is a painfully slow experience and wasn’t compatible with Linux. The speed really put me off along with the memory hungry GUI although I am sure they have improved this now.

Still after trying Mesh, Evernote and DropBox – DropBox for me wins hands down. By the way, this is also free up to 2Gb which is more than ample for my requirements

Think Windows Live Mesh is a free alternative.

Can’t fault it John.

Future developments include selective synchronisation. So for example:
Computer1 – Sync folders A B C
Computer2 – Sync folders A B
Computer3 – Sync folders A C

Also, when you join, if you refer a friend they AND you get an additional 250mb of space. Really is one of the easiest and most useful tools out there.

Looks good mate – just signed up now: I’ve got all me important stuff on a memory stick, and it ever buggered up I’d be royally screwed, so good to know it’s backed up!
