Clearly you don't know what an office desk costs...

Laptops run around $1k. Desks are... $1200, tops? Unless you're doing the mahogany lawyer desk thing. Keyboard and mouse are less than $100 for the set.

And we also generally don't need to replace our desks every 3-5 years, because they can no longer support the hardware sitting on them.

  • two monitors and desk separators. So instead of spending $2000 per employee you spend $3500 but cram 3 where you used to fit only 1. Also, you can put windows with nice view and office decor in the VR so the office can now be in a basement with blank walls. You would save tons of money on real estate.
