Meh, how often do you really do some serious work where you're not on your own hardware? Depends on your job I guess, if you're company tech support and walk around to people's PCs the whole time, but if you're a programmer or similar, when are you really not going to do your work on your PC?
It's not like you can't work with a default layout afterwards, you're just going to be a bit slower on one. It really didn't happen very often for me in years of working.
As a SW dev in a predev lab / tech demonstration environment: Unfortunately much more often than you would perhaps think...
