The computers are there for people considering purchasing one - when you use one "just because", you are potentially keeping a paying customer from trying out a product prior to purchase. They are not free public access computers. Go to the library for that.

I think Adam had a similar problem. His friend Eve got him in trouble.

If they were busy or it was near closing time or you were watching porn or something else that was inappropriate, or if you smelled, were drunk/intoxicated or if you had the sound turned up really loud, I could see why they would do that.

But generally they let people use the computers and don't bother you so long as you're not bothering anyone else.

Well the OP only has 1 post and he hasn't been back. Probably a troll.

lol as far as I'm concerned, everyone online posits questions and statement and exists for the sole purpose of letting me respond and run my mouth about things I think I know about. Troll or not, everyone does their job for me in that way.
