You’ll be able to determine the direction of information flow, as well as the sync frequency.
Compatibility
Currently, Google Calendar Sync is only compatible with Microsoft Outlook versions 2003, 2007, 2010 (32-bit) and operating systems Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.
Windows XP 64-bit Edition is not compatible with Google Calendar Sync at this time.
