I can pick up 30 networks with my MacBook, but I live on a street full of apartments. Most of them are very weak - I doubt that I could connect even if they were unlocked, which none are. The number of networks have more than doubled in the last year, and it used to be that about half of them were unlocked. My neighborhood seems to be about 75% under 30s who seem to work in downtown Chicago - i.e., aspiring yuppies.
