I've had a mac for about two years now, but now I have two, so this is a newbie question. Is there am easy/moslt automated way to sync address book and other iSync supported apps between computers without .Mac?

Syncing is one of the most prized features of .Mac, which you can typically snag for about $70/year. Because you want this feature, I'd just bite the bullet and get .Mac. There are specialized alternatives for calendar syncing and such (I think...), but .Mac is just so good at doing what you want.

If you have a fixed IP address on both machines then you can just use RSync. I use it to keep my home Mac and Work mac synced up in terms of my MP3's.

iCal can also sync to any WebDAV enabled webserver, AFAIK. I say this only because I researched and set up the same functionality in Mozilla Sunbird on windows earlier today, and ran across a great deal of mac info in the process.
