Quite welcome. I'm on remote desktop from an Italian restaurant,
tonight, using my Nokia N800 Linux tablet and Bluetooth keyboard over the
free wifi Pizza Roma provides with my Stromboli. Great food and
broadband...great combination.

Ah, my Boddington's English Ale has arrived...excuse me...

Oh great, I'll bet the table next to you is either laughing their asses
off or pissed off at the scene you are making.
Welcome to Nerdville at it's worst.

Nope. Everyone was laughing at the two crazy Australian TV commercials I
had on the 16GB external SD card...

The owner always comes by to see what new toys I have on the tablet and to
trade his cooking for my laptop expertise. I'm the reason for the free
wifi in his shop....a sales tool for us nerds, who also like Italian
cuisine mixed with beer.

Sorry you're so down on nerds. Why do you read usenet if you hate nerds??

How is Larry any different than the collection of people banging away on a
laptop in every Starbucks or Panera Bread accross the country, except his
equipment is smaller and less intrusive? Why would this pizza place offer
free WiFi if they didn't expect it's patrons to use it?

Besides, we should be encouraging Larry to seek nourishment outside of the
"World's Leading Server of Raisin Toast (tm)."
