McDonald's serves up wireless Web access

It looks like McD's is trying out wireless access points in a few of their stores, offering 2 hours of Internet access with the purchase of a meal.

My kid, Joe, loves to play in the play structures at McD's, so I am sometimes found there, hating the uncomfortable seating and wishing I could be doing something productive.

I would much rather be in a nice coffee shop somewhere, but these are the realities of fatherhood. A Wi-Fi connection would certainly help my productivity. I know there are others like me out there, because we often end up talking, since there is little else for us to do.

Of course, we don't eat any of the food there, except the yogurt parfaits, so I am not sure if I would qualify for the free service anyway. (SMILE)
