It’s one thing to take your laptop to Starbucks and use the free Wi-Fi for a few hours; it’s quite another to bring your entire desktop and set up shop (for a few days). Elaborate Starbucks offices are becoming more common as people decide to haul their entire PC systems along for an espresso trip.
Come to think of it, I did see someone bring their monitor and video game console to Starbucks once! Check out the examples that TechEBlog has compiled featuring some of the the most elaborate Starbucks offices.
