Received a 2017 MB PRO 13'' from/for work...should I buy one myself?

I see no reason to buy one, you have one you can use for personnal activities and based on your signature you have 3 more laptops. Seems kind of strange that you even want one.

Use that 2-3k to go on vacation or something

 

Yes, seems you need one for porn

 

just sell the other 3 then u can get the same one as your employer gave u.

 

Needs a "personal" device, iPad or Phone, for porn.

To OP,

If you do use your work machine, make sure you frequently back up your personal stuff. You could get fired and your device take away with no notice. Or they could change the policy and not allow you to store personal stuff on the system.

Personally, I try never to mix work and home computing, so I never use work computers for personal use, and visa verse.

 

It's best to keep "business things" separated from "private things".

Having said that, DON'T buy a 2017 MBP.
Wait until the new models come out.
Expect to see them September/October this year.

Do what you have to do, until then.

 

Personally I would never only have a work-issued machine as my sole computer. I do work on work-issued hardware and everything else on my personal hardware. If you only have a work-issued computer, you are subject to any monitoring and/or restrictions your organization implements and if/when you leave you will be out of a computer. I wouldn't want to put myself in that situation.

 

I second this. Not that I have anything to hide, I don’t wouldn’t want my business to have the ability to randomly go through my computer and view personal information and data that you might have stored on there. Just like life in general, it’s always best to keep work and personal computer use separated.

 

You definitely do not want them betting a early copy of your resignation letter.
