I work a graveyard helpdesk shift, so have a lot of time to play during work, so I bring my laptop in and hook it to a 2-port Belkin USB KVM switch so I can use my work's keyboard, mouse, and most importantly, LCD monitor.

Well, I was just given another work computer, so now 2 work computers and my laptop. A 4-port USB & Audio KVM switch would be ideal, those get expensive, so was thinking about just buying another 2-port USB KVM switch and daisy chaining the two KVM switches together, but not sure if this is possible.

Yes, but you're probably going to get some significant signal degradation doing that.

You could always buy a second one, if it works, great - if not, return for store credit & trade up to a 4-port. :)
