Should Employees Provide Their Own Hardware and Software?

A discussion on Slashdot.org about employees providing their own computers.

I'm not sold on this as a good idea for computers or even mobile phones. If we were to implement VDI of one flavor (VMware) or another (Microsoft), then the underlying hardware could be a non-issue.

We are currently providing limited support to a couple of Apple iProducts that employees have brought to the office. It gives us a chance to see what might evolve and build a business case without a significant investment or taking on risk.
