I'm not going to go into the whole debate on stealing..but if you left you car door open with the keys in it and someone took it, same thing?

Besides I was only joking..if you didn't see the sarcasm.

that analogy works only if your potential thief brings it back when he is done using it. im not taking his property, im making use of it and yeah i saw the sarcasm

If you live in an apt complex then you probably don't even have to pay for internet access! SOOOO many people are complete morons when it comes to something that should take 2 minutes to setup. It's not that hard to figure out.

Unless he pays for his bandwidth, that is.

Yeah I don't understand why so many people have a wireless router anyway. If you live alone in some dinky apartment, what's the point?

Not having to trip over cables all the time.

If it's a desktop that stays in one place, the cable would never be tripped over. If on the other hand you have a laptop that you want to move around, or you want to send stuff to your TV, then I can see the point of wireless. But most people just have a desk with a PC and printer sitting on it, and that's the extent of their tech.

Far more people are buying notebooks these days. Desktops are passé for the majority of people who aren't gamers, in my experience. Why be tied to one locations, when you can use something everywhere?
