Exactly, and you're also assuming I could trust the data to dropbox. Sorry, but no, I'll trust photos and nonsensitive personal data to it without too much worry, but NDAs are legal contracts and the whole cloud storage thing and EU law are murky enough to make me just step away from the keyboard. McGarr's (an Irish solicitor) has a good summary here: http://www.mcgarrsolicitors.ie/2009/09/11/cloud-computing-eu...

Fair enough with respect to NDAs in your case, but they don't really apply in mine. As for it missing features of a fully-fledged DVCS, meh. What you're talking about is basically a glorified TODO list, which in most cases you'll be the only one updating. Furthermore, you'll usually be updating it from one place at a time. On the rare occasions I get a conflict, it's usually a simple matter to resolve. I do use Mercurial for managing other stuff like environment configs and program settings though.
