"I can code in a crowded bar"
Bars aren't for coding, put down the computer.

But then ... maybe you work at a bar? You didn't describe your office.
Where I live you don't go to a bar to drink although you usually drink something when you're in a bar.
Now, I'm not actually a coder, I just do a job-related script or two now and then; so YMMV.
My specs: Acer Aspire One D150 (1gb/160gb) with Ubuntu 9.10 Emacs 23 for editing Switched to Chrome (5.0.379.dev) from FF, coz the new dom inspector seems to hook right at the bottom of the window like firebug.
Using Balsamiq on the netbook is a pain for new mockups. Not to just view mocks tho.
It seems to be slow to run the Android emulator, but it runs fine raising some exceptions. Tip: click wait and not force quit in the emulator :) also skip eclipse and learn the commands. The only thing you'll probably miss is the auto pkg importer in eclipse (fixing statements by importing pkgs). But that's fine :)
If it's at night (I've done this too), the loud people act like a white noise generator and leave me alone in my thoughts.
