I used your link and have downloaded dropbox, but have yet to install and try it. Does it keep your Calibre library synced between two computers, without causing problems in the database?

EDIT: I've installed Dropbox on one of my computers and was looking at the Getting Started info. It seems that with the present version you have to move all of the folders you want synced into the Dropbox folder. I don't know that I want to reorganize my whole folder structure to accommodate that. Someone on the dropbox site suggested using Microsoft SyncToy as an alternative that doesn't require moving everything into an umbrella folder. Anyone here tried SyncToy, and if so, what did you think?
