If you work for $bigcorp and have a work computer with nothing of personal value to you, all the more power to you. Great way to keep things separated. I'm writing more from the perspective of somebody whose home office and workstation environments contain both tons of personal data and tons of consulting/freelance/project/tasks-for-clients stuff.

I wouldn’t mix those two things anyway. What if they sue you and in discovery your 42 gigs of furry porn comes out?
