I will shortly have a new imac. After running my life through my PB I need some help with understanding how to keep 2 macs in sync:

Is it possible?
Is one of the computers like the master?

I have .mac so I currently sync address book, bookmarks etc etc....but how do I keep 2 computers synced. Ifd that is possible and I'm sure it is....

Do all accounts get copied/synced. Must there be the same accounts on both machines?

.Mac will only sync certain things. For a more complete sync from computer to computer, check out rsync or one of its many rsync GUIs for OS X, and SSH public key authentication.
