I'd like to simply copy my project directory to another computer (a Windows
PC), work on it and copy them back to my Macintosh. I can't seem to do it
though. How do I go about working on a project on different computers. Is
CVS my only option? Complicated for nothing?

Hi
Copying the workspace is not a good idea - especially not between
operating systems that use different line endings and so. We encountered
several issues whilst copying workspaces (esp. between smb-drives and
local ntfs drives).
Sharing your projects on a CVS server is one possibility and the Eclipse
import/export function a second one.
I'd go for version control, because you get an easy way to synchronize
your different workspaces; you get revision control including the
possibility to tag or roll back easily...

As others have said, CVS or Subversion is really the best option.
Neither one is really complicated. But if you want the "poor man's"
answer, File>Export projects from one Eclipse to an Archive (ZIP) file,
then File >Import them into the other Eclipse.
Hope this helps,
Eric
