On the other hand, once you had your order you really would have the initiative. You're there, you're using your computer and the merchant would have to do something proactive to stop you if you refuse to co-operate. I'd think that would be a big step, although I suppose the police could change you with trespassing if it went that far.

You can't discriminate individually and violate civil rights, but this is not such a case. A business can legally ban computers. Whether it's a smart business decision is another matter.
