Synchronizing your Linux Laptop and Desktop

Post: Synchronizing your Linux Laptop and Desktop
This article shows you how to use the commands scp and rsync to keep one or more directories synchronized between two Linux systems. This article has got me thinking I may be able to use rsync as part of my data backup plan. I am thinking by keeping my critical data synchronized between two machines, if something where to happen to one machine I could simply switch over to the other machine to keep working.
Looks like I need to read the man page on rsync and do a little on-line reading. Does anyone have any experience with rsync? How have you used it in your backup methodologies? How you tried using rsync with a Windows machine?
