If not his property, return the computer. It is not his. He will feel good having done the right thing. He will always feel a little dirty each time he uses the computer.

I dunno. If the company gives me one day's notice that we're done, I think they want me out of there. What possible reason would I have to set foot in the place again for niceties like returning their stuff?

Let's just say things were done correctly and professionally and I was given, say, even a week's notice so BOTH the company and I could settle up what needed to be settled? That would seem a much more civilized choice.

Companies so mismanaged they give their employees one day's notice before going under really don't deserve any thoughtful consideration. Just my opinion ...
