My 2c: resign. Many companies fail to appreciate that developers have different needs for their computer. It starts with the platform: everyone has to run the standard OS. And then the group policies start locking everything down so it's easier for IT to manage a 1000 instances of the same thing. You lose administrator access, and can only install approved applications. Then you get the standard hardware, with minimal RAM, minimal screen real-estate, and cheap storage. And then you get moved to a cloud-hosted standard PC image with a Wyse thin client. If you can stop it now, do. Otherwise, polish your resume. Life's too short. (Bitter? Moi? Nah ...)
