There is a direct correlation between employee morale and the machines they work on. It's ok to bootstrap, but if I can get more out of employee by buying them a machine they actually enjoy using, it's worth it in my eyes. Though, I'll concede that large companies will probably have a tough time switching because of existing network infrastructure.
