Sync does not standardize the file structure for the bookmarks between the computers. There is no way of controlling which computers bookmarks will prevail and which will be deleted. I suggest this should only be used by those with a few bookmarks. If you have hundreds you will probably find that you have lost half of them within a few days. This is not as simple as it sounds!!
