This week, the Golden Arches will add more surf. Ten of the fast food joints in Manhattan will throw in a side of wireless Internet access if you buy a combo meal. You deserve some Net access today! Just think, while the kids open up those Happy Meal toys, you can do a Google search for "choking hazards." The access is good for an hour -- if you want more, you can pay $3 for an additional hour or just get another No. 4. Or maybe the No. 3 with no onions. McDonald's plans to have "McWiFi" in 300 more restaurants by year's end.
