When Jobs introduced Leopard early this year, I remember him talking about big enhancements to the .Mac subscribers. The feature that i was expecting was the computer to computer "sync".

I remember him talking about forgeting a file at home while being at the office one could log on to the computer at home via .Mac and get the file. Never heard from this again....

anyone remeber this or was it one of my wild-techno-dreams...

It's called "Back to my Mac" and its in Leopard. You just need another computer running Leopard to use it.

It doesn't work for me at all and it doesn't work or not work reliably for a lot of other people:
