McDonalds to go Wireless?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the would-you-like-802.11g-with-that? dept.

crayongod writes "The AP, by way of AOL *yipe*, is reporting a pilot program by McDonalds to provide inhouse WiFi with the purchase of a combo meal. This sure will make roadtrips a lot easier." An hour of access per combo meal. Additional hours can be purchased for $3... or another zillion calorie combo meal. Mmmm. Healthy.

    Sir, would you like an IP with that order?
    Should I super-size your bandwidth?

    Honestly, I'm wondering what the training implications of this will be.

    They want to silence the slashdot crowd. So, free internet access with a big mac, who does that target? people like us... make us get fat and die, no more MS bashing.

    Next they will announce 'free' broadband for a week with the purchase of a carton of smokes.

    I just hope the girl who can't figure out why I gave her $12.05 for a $6.55 lunch order isn't going to be responsible for getting the MAC of my Airport Card into the access control system.
