Sounds too good to be true? Well, it's a little more complicated than going down to PC World, but a genuine DTI tax break nonetheless.
Patrick Collinson's article Screen savers in the Guardian on Saturday explains the scheme. Essentially, it's a way for your employer to bulk-buy PCs and lease them to you via your pay packet over 3 years - saving you 33% in (basic rate) tax & NI. After a notional £50 payoff at the end of the lease period, the kit is yours - free and clear. Your employer even gets to claim back the VAT!
Send your boss on over to the DTI website and start picking out your dream machine...
