Guilty of both bringing laptop to study and sketching.

Has nothing to do with hot chicks though. Just a nice environment to be creative. It's calm and feels upbeat.

I was going to say, Free-WiFi? Must not be in NYC.

Then again, who needs to pay for WiFi when you can use your laptop anywhere (cabs, coffee shops, park, boat) with your bluetooth enabled cell phone and EVDO network?
