This should work as well, however I found that I only wanted to synchronize settings for a few apps. Some apps have settings, which you’d like to have different between systems.
You can symlink individual application preference folders rather than the entire preference folder.
Also some apps let you specify where their preferences folder is located by holding down the option key when you launch them. Then you can set them to use a folder in your dropbox.
