Is there a way to combine two audio source into one audio in port?

Long story short, I been hooking up my ps2 to my tc tuner card and use the blue audio in port to get sound. However, I just purchased a 360 over christmas and plan to use a vga cable for the monitor, but I need to do something about the audio as well. I decided to go same route and use the blue audio in port on my computer. The question is, there is something cheap I can buy that would combine both audio source into the blue audio in port? In short, is there a way to combine t 3.5mm source into one.

Actually, would this work? http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.16814

Or would it only work as two output and not in 2 input to one source?
 
Hmmm, it sound dangerous. Is there somethign a little bit safer. Anyway, as of now, I plugged my ps2 audio to one of my monitor that got weak speaker, it work, just not as good as my 5.1 speaker.

My friend has a mechanical switch for his SPDIF optical thing. I have no idea where he bought it, but I am sure you can find something cheap like that or something more expensive like an electronic switch.
 
I assume you are talking about analog audio here.

If you want to avoid any possibility of messing anything up, you can buy a cheap composite A/V input switcher. Monoprice.com would probably be the cheapest and most reliable option for something like that.

But I think just using a simple Y-splitter would *probably* be fine as long as you only turn on one component at a time so you don't overload the input.
