I just thought of another scenario for why PXE was enabled.
You don't need to boot to a remote PXE server in a far off location. A laptop sitting next to the target machine can be a PXE server. It can connect through a small switch or crossover cable. Boot the target system, connect to the second laptop, then push a boot image from one laptop to another. I know because I've done it.
