changing home directory to dropbox or a home server question

I am looking to change my home directory to either dropbox or my Netgear Stora home server so I can share the files between my laptop and desktop.  I haven't been able to do this since I upgraded to BS 2.x and bought a IMac for the household. 

I used my Dell laptop for brewing in my brew shop and in the past I used my desktop to modify my recipes and I was able to sync them by both pointing to the same primary directory on my Stora Agent.  It worked great to keeping the calendars, shopping lists, recipes etc synced.  I would like to do this using dropbox.

Any body have any advice? 
Thanks in advance!
 
Search "Dropbox".

In short, no it won't work. You will eventually lose your data.
 
Thanks for the info Tom.  I didn't find any dropbox info on my first search.  I guess I am stuck with using a flash ram for now.  Not what I wanted but it is a work around.
