Howdy,
What I do is backup [1] my Home directory nightly. I have two
computers: desktop and laptop (for business travel). When it's time
to unhitch the old wagon and take the laptop, I `rsync' [2] from my
desktop to my laptop. Upon my return, I do the reverse.
The above allows me to create a quick running setup.
Cheers,

where $1 is the target host.
I also use the `--exclude-from' option because there are some
local files which are specific to each host.
