One other thought: I keep two computers synchronized daily, morning and night, by using a little program (25 bucks I think) called Directory Toolkit. It does a host of other things, but I use it to synchronize a directory called "all my stuff" from one computer to another. I install TheBat!, all of its files, and half a dozen other programs into that directory. Then the program syncs from one to the other. You can do it with drives on one mapped to the other on the network, or more frequently I just do it with my flash drive or other external USB drive. It is also handy way to synchronize to a backup drive. I always have it set to add new files, delete ones no longer on the source, and update all that need updating. It saves lots of time since it only updates that small percentage that need it. -- The road goes on forever and the party never ends.
