SyncToy rocks
Well my notebook arrived at half past five last night! Yay! I’ve been playing with it since then.
I found this really useful tool called SyncToy for Windows XP. It’s part of the Microsoft PowerToys series of tools, and a free download. It lets you synchronise two folders, with resume and difference checking - kind of like rsync in the Unix world. The only thing is that this is REALLY easy to use. I’m currently using it to synchronise folders between my old desktop and new notebook. It works a treat.
