I would argue that this is a moot point since computer hardware is a commodity. Most companies around here buy their employees new hardware and said employees will simply use them for all their computing needs as is convenient (would you travel with 2 laptops just to be able to claim you didn't use company hardware).
I frankly find this kind of legal posturing by companies abhorrent and immoral. It's almost like treating employees as slaves.

The cost of the hardware is recognized (in accounting) over the life of the machine. >(would you travel with 2 laptops just to be able to claim you didn't use company hardware). I have a really nice computer from work and an old laptop at home. I use my old laptop for all personal projects to avoid just such an issue.
