Yes, that=92s what we are limited to - 1 PC per employee.=20

Had a choice of three desktop configurations and two laptops.

It was also restricted to a small window of opportunity to make an
application - 4 weeks. If you didn't get your application in by the cut
off
date then no PC. They also made great emphasis that this was a one off
and
may not be repeated.

Still I got my request in on time and am the hirer of a nice new PC.

Three years deductions from salary for a three year loan period then I
can
either give it back with a final administration payment of =A360 or keep
it
with a final administration payment of =A360!

I've got three years to decide which option to take :-)

Thanks Pete / Don,

im currently working for EDS .... Time to speak to me boss.

Wouldn't mind a new laptop .. and a desktop ... I wonder !

Probably not a goer John, - AFAIK the Inland Revenue rules limit the
scheme to 1 PC per person (according to the literature I've been given
by my employer, anyway).
