No sync, no good

Just installed the latest and greatest release of Groove on my Windows 2000 workstation and notebook. And I find that it still does not cure it's worst problem: Accounts get out of sync and the user has to intervene. Delete an account and fetch it from the other machine. This very other machine however has developed a problem while I was travelling: It shuts itself off. It may have a small crack in the main board, I don't know. And now Groove tells me that I need to delete the account on the other healthy machine. Which means it will delete all the data on this box and depend on the other, very sick machine:

Are you sure you want to delete your account Volker Weber? If you click Yes, Groove will delete all shared spaces associated with the account on this computer, log off the account, and close the transceiver.

How risky is that? To me this looks like Microsoft's "replication", not like Lotus'. Oh dear.
