    the people who populate noisebridge are a bunch of 
interleaved social circles. there's no ring to rule 
them all others. 
    i haven't heard of a no desktops policy. i have 
heard of a you-have-to-label-your-tools policy that 
seems to me to be respected more often than not. 
    i don't have a problem with Isky setting up his 
computer somewhere. i know he's been sharing it with 
pretty much anyone who needs or wants to use a 
computer, even once in a while at the time that he, 
isky, wants to use it (isky comes in, sees someone's 
using his computer, they have a brief chat, both 
bobbing and ducking politely, then isky leaves saying 
go ahead, he'll come back later). 
    seems to me that isky and his computer are in the 
spirit of noisebridge (and that's what's important, 
right?). 

    as to "asshole", it's an asshole prank. if the 
"person" doesn't like isky's computer there, then the 
"person" should tell isky, not hide his box.
