Hi,
I have just started using Redhat 9.0. I think it's great but I am still using XP for various chores. I love my PPC and couldn't live without it but I wonder....is it possible to sync it/transfer stuff using Linux? I am a newbie to Linux so I wondered if anybody knew.
Thanks,

Add patience, RTFM and enjoy.

This seems to be a topic gaining in attention on SourceForge lately, so I'd expect to see either new products coming soon or faster build out of SynCE

One more thing. Make sure you make a complete back up of your PPC data on your Windows machine and store it away as a separate file from your production files. You never know what can happen.
