There's another cool way that works with both PCs and Macs and is pretty slick. It's called FolderShare. You install software on both computers and then register it on the website. It'll allow you to sync up various folders on multiple computers and even allow others to access your files. You can set it to sync automatically or on demand. I use it to sync a Mac and a pc right on my desk. I never have to think about it and when I need to see how a file looks on the pc, I just switch computers and open the file up. I use it under the assumtion that closing the file and waiting a minute before opening it up on the other machine is a good idea, but I have never seen it lag.
