Are you a road warrior? Do you take
your laptop with you everywhere--on your distant travels, as well as
between home and the office?
If so, you need help with things like synching files, making sure your
precious laptop isn't stolen, and accessing your office PC when you're on
the road. I've found lots of programs at ZDNet Downloads that are
perfect for you on-the-go types. Here are three of my favorites.
Save-N-Sync
keeps the files on two computers synchronized. This makes it easier to use
both a desktop and a laptop, because each has the latest copies of your
files. Save-N-Sync also doubles as a backup program.
(Shareware/Windows)
 
PCAnywhere
is the all-time best program for accessing a computer remotely. If you're
on the road and need to get to files on your business or home PC from your
laptop, this software is for you. (Shareware/Windows)
zTrace
helps track down your laptop if it's stolen. The program runs stealthily
in the background, and every time your laptop connects to the Internet, it
tracks your location. Note that this download is free, but in order to use
the recovery services, you have to pay a fee. (Free/Windows)
Life's tough when you travel. So try these downloads. They'll make life
on the road a whole lot easier.
