Nice.  As someone once said, "Hell is having more than one computer."

Why? I don't understand that. I have 5 Macs (all running OS X most of the time) in my apartment that I use for different tasks. It's no problem keeping them all going.

The problem is not just keeping N computers running properly, it's
keeping each user's computers "synced" for email, news, downloads,
etc.

It seems like this problem would be common enough that there would
be good, easy-to-use tools for dealing with it, but with the many
different readers and file sorting disciplines, I haven't found one.

FWIW, all five computers are quite reliable and seldom require any
care (except for making them act the same as described above).
