Cloning to laptop

Am using SuperDuper! to backup my G5 HD to Firewire drive. GREAT application (I abandoned Carbon Copy Cloner after first use of SD).

Use a Powerbook on the road & need to keep its files current with latest state of data on G5. Am using Target mode and dump-&-copy from G5 to laptop. It works, but is messy & perhaps risky. Would like to use SD to move the data, but have not because of disk space & because am concerned about screwing up laptop-unique files (Airport settings, etc.) not used on G5.

Is there a general discussion somewhere about desktop-to-laptop cloning with SD? (looked, but could not find).

Can I clone only selected files to the laptop (e.g., user files only)?

Tks.
