Ah, so actually development is done on a virtual desktop. Makes sense. Currently, I do most of my work locally on a work issued laptop (and external monitor) with some services offloaded to AWS. I wouldn't mind building a desktop PC for fun, but as I don't really do high-end gaming, I couldn't see justifying the expense unless I was able to do work on it as well. I'd of course have to get employer sign-off, but I'm just trying to figure out what that kind of agreement might look like.
