I was hired in at a company a couple years ago. My soon-to-be manager asked, "What should I order you for a computer?" I responded with, "Whatever you guys buy - Dell, Lenovo.

After I started, I notice he did almost all of his work from a conference room, using a Surface Book remoted into a desktop in his office.
