Hello! Don't really post much on this forum but I hope that changes :)

Here is the situation I have got... I have got an iMac with my iTunes and my iPhoto all nicely set up etc... I have just purchased a Macbook Pro and would like to know if there was a simple way I could have the same iTunes and iPhoto on my Macbook Pro as my iMac...

I will be taking my Macbook Pro out and about and would like an easy solution to have both libraries the same if that is possible?

I understand I could just copy over the library but what happens if I decide to add something to the library on one machine at a later date? Would I need to copy over the whole data again?
 
Im sure you could point both of them with aliases or something similar to a dropbox folder or mobileme...whatever you use similar to the way people with boot ssds point the home folder to the optibay. I know holding option when starting iTunes will let you pick the library location. Not sure about iPhoto.
