What, nobody launching at me like a rabid Cujo? You disappoint me, CUK.

Surely being completely ignored is even worse?

Not directly related but I have a question, everyone saying that it's not wholly and exclusively for business use... Are you saying that you have two sets of everything, one for business and one for home use? Two printers?/two packs of paper, separate pens..

Are you honestly saying that you do nothing home.related on your "work laptop"

I've got a work laptop paid for by myco... I use it for browsing the web in the evening, personal email etc..
My co bought my printer but I'm certinally not buying another to.print one letter a month for personal use.

My co bought my desk and chair... But I keep my own crap in the drawers.

If I was a permie with a work laptop Is use it for personal use in the evenings if the employer allowed it... Don't see the issue.

With regards to licencing AV that's a different matter.
I'd buy a cheaper home package for the home PC from own funds and get MYco to buy the one for the work PC.

Pay for AV? Nope. Avast free.

Could be wrong but I thought it was against the terms to use the free version on a work computer....
