Nothing says "business necessity" quite like justifying an RTX 4090 and 64GB of RAM for checking Outlook and occasionally firing up Corel Draw. The accountant's face says it all—she's seen this exact pitch three times this quarter, and she knows full well that "mission critical" translates to "I need to maintain a 240fps competitive edge in Valorant during lunch breaks."
The beauty of this expense report is the technical specificity. Nobody questions the RAM requirements when you throw around professional software names. Sure, Corel Draw could run on a potato from 2015, but try explaining that your current laptop can't handle the "complex rendering workflows" without breaking a sweat. The RGB lighting? That's for better visibility in low-light office conditions, obviously.
Pro tip: Always mention "Docker containers" and "virtual machines" in your justification. Works every time. Well, almost every time.
