Default Figure out a way to synchronize Outlook folders on a home network

I know that I can copy my outlook folders to a CD and then run to the other
computers on my home network and import the files. But that is incredibly
time consuming. Given that most home networks don't use exchange server, is
there another way to synchronize folders that I am missing?

In addition to Hal's suggestion, if you do not try to run Outlook on both
machines at the same time, you can simply share the PST between the Outlooks
on two machines.
