Employees don't usually value hardware they didn't pay for. I've seen people intentionally banging their old laptops against the table to break the HDD and consequently get a new, faster computer. I'm also guilty. A certain easily-upset micromanager sourced a box of one dollar second hand HP keyboards that are pretty much unusable, so I've been shipping them out with other hardware, forgetting them at customer premises and so on.
