I pretty much have a similar setup. What has worked for me is: I try not to be fancy. I download emails in one place (laptop); write, compile, and test software in another (desktop.) For files I do need to share (no file replication; just one instance), I have a SAMBA-shared directory on a desktop which other PCs (Windows, Linux, Solaris) in my home network can access.
