WARNING! MICROSOFT DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS!

Move the pst file you want to use to a Shared drive. Then with Outlook
closed on one machine, point the current instance of Outlook at the shared
drive. Close Outlook, go to the other machine and repeat the process.
You cannot access the pst file with both sets of Outlook at the same time -
you can only access it one at a time.
Make sure you have good frequent backups of your pst file.
