Laptop only can be quite cumbersome, with always having to bring it home in the event that you should need it. The gross majority of the time, it's just extra work bringing it to and from the office for no benefit. Only on those rare occasions where not coming into the office presented itself, did the laptop have the opportunity to be of value, and even only if you had the forethought to sync and offline copy of the projects, and support files/folders required to work from home.
Workstation only means lots of personal time nights and weekends coming into the office. 'Nough said.
