Nowhere did he claim "two computers for every employee". Like any company with centrally managed IT, it'd be wise to have hot spares of any and all hardware. That doesn't imply "buy 2x of everything!", it means to prepare for failure and minimize downtime (of any hardware) by having spares that can be quickly swapped.

So, downvote away I guess. But the whole thrust of this argument seems ridiculous to me. There is nothing special about macs that enables this strategy, and it's a stupid and expensive strategy that gains no benefits over a standard backup routine.
