You should use different tokens, that's the main advantage of OAuth.
For example, if one of those computers is compromised/stolen/whatever,
you can revoke that token alone. Using password authentication you
would have to change your password and re-login on *every* computer.

Although there is a flaw (don't know who's to blame): it's hard to
tell which computer is which in the OSM "revoke tokens" config page
since they all say just say "JOSM".
