This could damage your database (make it inconsistent with the actual files in the calibre library).

I'd also suggest to make sure you sync after each and every usage, whichever the computer. I personally don't run Dropbox all the time (you shouldn't have Calibre open and running while your Dropbox is syncing, for example). So if I were doing this, I'd need to make sure I synced my Dropbox before switching to the other computer.
Back in the PDA days, I remember when you could actively sync independent actions on the PDA, but you could end up with "expected results". I don't even know if Dropbox offers that option.
