Preferably you are the sole user of both computers, ie your desktop at

Both computers are laptops, but I am the sole user for both. One is my
personal laptop, the other is for work.
If you hand the laptop back at any point then I would, scrub the hard

PGP key on one of my laptops.
My question is could I should I share this key with another laptop, so
that I can use the same key from both computers? If I can and I should, how
