I heard there is no such thing as brief case. we do have people who have
laptop on the road to places where they may not have internet connection
anywhere close and they need to work with some files

Windows Vista includes "Briefcase".

On an empty area of the Desktop:

Right-click > select New > select Briefcase

I used to use Briefcase when I was studying at university, before I set up
an FTP server to use instead.

It's awful. I found it easy to overwrite and lose important work files
under stressful deadline situations. I can't remember the reasons why I
lost work (it happened more than once) but I think at least one time it was
due to the incorrect time on the CAD workstation I was using. I stopped
using Briefcase after I missed a presentation due to using it.

Synctoy gives you a lot more control of what is going on, and I would say
that it is the more reliable and flexible alternative:
