I still have two lying around. One of them was a 15” dell brick.
I had informed the client that I will be disposing of them when I’m back if they don’t handle it and that any and all third party liability well fall on the direct supervisor if he can’t organize the transfer.
Needlessly to say even me connecting them directly to the courier was not enough.
My guess is that the OP depends on the money otherwise he wouldn’t be asking for help. So either but a cheap laptop and then control it with barrier[1] from your main driver and don’t ask(because whatever you ask they will probably say no). Or let them ship theirs to you, but I’m willing to bet that it be worse than whatever second machine you get.
In the meantime I would suggest you look for a new client because judging from experience there is a lot more pain to come. I didn’t do it in time and ended up paying dearly for my lack of initiative on that front.
