>Home away from home
>Ever thought you could carry your home in the palm of your
>hands or in your pocket? You can. Panther's Home on iPod
>feature lets you store your home directory ― files, folders,
>apps ― on your iPod (or any FireWire hard drive) and take it
>with you wherever you go. When you find yourself near a
>Panther-equipped Mac, just plug in the iPod, log in, and
>you’re “home,” no matter where you happen to be. And when
>you return to your home computer, you can synchronize any
>changes you’ve made to your files by using File Sync, which
>automatically updates offline changes to your home directory.
