I remember back in Windows 95, Microsoft had the "Briefcase" icon on the desktop, which could easily sync files across non-networked computers via a floppy disk. I never used it because back then I was too young to have more than one (still very expensive) computer, but it sounded nifty. Not sure why they killed it off.

They still do! Right click desktop, new > briefcase. When you delete it, its description is "synchronizes files when you use two computers". No idea how it works now, but it's there. EDIT: Windows 7, not sure about 8.
