Slow equipment - who's Who is responsible for slow equipment?

This is NOT a question ofabout how to ask for new equipment. ThatThey won't; that is out of the question, they won't.

My laptop takes around 15 minutes to boot, and 5 minutes to power down. It is an old model, and I use it heavily for software development.

Should I come to work early to make up for its power up/down time or shouldis that be the company's responsibility - if? If they want me to work more or better should they provide better equipment? I already calculated andBy my calculations, the time wasted over a year easily pays for a new laptop.
