Re: What happend to the company providing kit to do their dirty work with?

You may be willing to provide your own laptop, but what about your co-workers? I've worked within a couple of companies where management put pressure on an individual to change their way of working, take on more work, etc. and then, when they had been coerced, set it as some kind of precedent for everyone else. With BYOD this could have all sorts of implications for other workers.

Glad to see the posts here have returned to some form of dignity. Jobs best trick was to deliver technology to consumers in a form that was both accessible and fun. Devices that are mean to an end and not an end in themselves.
