After a quick search on Windows.com, I found my answer!

There’s tool called SyncToy 2.1. The brief description reads:

SyncToy 2.1 is a free application that synchronizes files and folders between locations. Typical uses include sharing files, such as photos, with other computers and creating backup copies of files and folders.

The tool was originally written for Windows Vista, but works like a charm in 7.

There doesn’t seem to be a special for upgrading to Ultimate.

  • Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade – $49.99 (normally $119.99)
  • Windows 7 Professional Upgrade – $99.99 (normally $199.99)

I really wish that Microsoft would adopt the Apple upgrade for Mac OS X Snow Leopard. Mac OS X Leopard owners can upgrade for $29. Despite that, I’m going to do the W7 Professional Upgrade…
