I frequently use my laptop in my bathtub, bed and car. Toilet? Yeah, done that and been there.
I know someone who specifically installed a drop down airplane-like table in their bathroom to ensure he had a decent spot to rest their laptop. Clever.
My girlfriend was initially disgusted by the idea of using a laptop in the toilet. For years she tutted every time she spotted me walking into the bathroom with it. Then one morning, not so long ago in fact, I discovered her macbook in there. Yep, she’d decided the shopping site she was on was too good to walk away from and carried her laptop into the bathroom to continue shopping.
How about you? Other places?
That’s really wired,I blog only from my desk.
Not for laptop (and not me, sry :) ), but touch-phone at McDo, eating chips ?
I remember bunking off school and sitting on the curb by the side of the road playing Doom on my old laptop.
Giving dirty looks to passers by as if to say, ‘What? never seen a tramp with a laptop before?’
toilet: check, beach: check, car: check (while being locked out of my house).
Haven’t tried it in the bathroom yet, but that’s probably because I only have a shower ;)
Do you know the baby races? One baby won this kind of championship because he was encouraged not by noisy toys, but by fathers laptop and mouse. That’s a really weird place to use the laptop.

Hi Tristian

I video-blogged from those places with my laptop using satellite connexions.
Salute from your french twitt-bot translator ! ;)
that is so crazy,, I think you should suggest apple to build waterproof laptop so she could use it while taking a bath.
Yes indeed we should get iTouch first for laptops.
For those who are like me using their iPhone/iPod touch responding to emails and surfing on the web while tanning with a warm sunny beach in the background it becomes totally essential to have a simple tool.
Where goes the world huh ?
You can’t imagine the places used to make wardriving…. LOL!!
