What is a roaming profile?

What exactly is a "roaming profile?"

I have 2 computers running XP Pro networked together via a wireless router. I want to set up Outlook so that I can download my email from either computer and see the same emails from both computers.

Is is possible to do this without a server?

Thanks,
Ross

Roaming Profile

As far as I understand it,a roaming profile is used to preserve a users configuration and present the user with an identical environment on any desktop the user logs onto.
Thats the techno babble out of the way.How to set it up for the configuration you want is a bit out of my depth,but why not go to www.techadvice.com/nt40/R/RoamingProfiles.htm where it explains,with diagrams,exactly how to set up a roaming profile.Phew!!

Postscript:I know it says NT4.0 on the site,but maybe it will throw ideas to you?
Anyhow,
goodluck.
