Tim's post prompted me to see if there was a version of rsync for windows. The two options seem to be:
(1) install cygwin - rsync comes as part of the package. (I'm not a great fan of cygwin so I decided against this approach)
(2) install microsoft's resource kit tools for MS Server 2003 ( http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9d467a69-57ff-4ae7-96ee-b18c4790cffd&displaylang=en ). They include robocopy which isn't a clone of rsync but has pretty good functionality. It seems to have much tighter control of exactly what is getting synchronized than SyncToy does.

I use rsync for things I want on both - I also ssh to my workstation
frequently for access to stuff I don't really need on my lappy, but need
access to.
