Putting aside whether I could buy such a machine, and assuming taking it out of the US would be OK policy-wise (that I'd have to check, I suspect it's within the letter but not the spirit of the policy) as soon as it's outside the US it's a company machine I couldn't take back in. Puchasing a laptop per trip is not very economic.
Although many consider the UK to be verging on a socialist state (don't worry, the US is gaining on you), I wasn't aware that simply arriving in the country with personal property automatically assigned such personal property to one's employer. That's pretty scary!
