[GNC] Single User two Geographically Separate Computers

There is a non-cloud alternative to being able to use GnuCash in multiple
locations on multiple devices. It involves keeping both GnuCash and
associated files on a removable media, like thumb drive, and
transporting/using the thumb drive at each location. I've only read about
this, I don't have experience doing it.

Kind regards, Greg Feneis
