Using SyncCenter to sync with two PC's, The site says it's possible..

nX07 · 02-20-2008

On the Vista Features website, it states "The new Sync Center is a convenient central location in Windows Vista from which you can manage data synchronization between PCs, between PCs and servers, and between PCs and devices. The importance of this capability grows all the time as the range of computers, devices, locations, and data sources has exploded."

Now, how do I go amongst this? I certainly hope they are not talking about Offline Files when they mention that. I would assume that Synchronization between PC's would behave somewhat like SyncToy does. Furthermore, would a device such as a thumbdrive not be considered something sync-able? I mean come on..

Can anyone shed light on this? Thanks!

The link to the site is here:

(2nd paragraph, first sentence)

I am using Ultimate, so I have all the features possibly available.

I've seen this and tried to accomplish it as well, but with no luck. Was this one of those features in development that never made it to production?
