I've never been overly impressed by copy.com, as far as I am concerned their desktop syncing program is a piece of junk. It is possible it works better on Windows (where I suspect most of their users lie). 
Conversely, I have always been extremely pleased with Dropbox. If you don't yet have a Dropbox account, you can use the referral link in my signature.  |
Thanks eschwartz. I thought Copy.com also acted as a back-up. Like when you first sign up you get this window that says something like 'do you want to put all of your files in the Copy folder?' (I said no.)
I can see that the Copy folder has files from both of my computers, but doesn't it serve as a back-up too? Or do I need to get something else to do that?
