Can you study in a room with a computer?

e.g., Your bedroom, not a library or classroom.

My ADD/ADHD gets the best of me :(

if I have to write an essay I usually disable my wireless nic or I'll end up surfing ATOT instead.

Sometimes. If I need to do some reading, I go to my bed or someplace away from my computer. It is extremly difficult for me to get anything done while at my computer, in my room. If I need to use my comp for something, I end up going to the library.

I do it all the time. For work purposes, a lot of my work is on the PC anyway (Matlab, Pro/E, etc)

the thing i hate most about this habit is that i'll have absolutely no reason to go on the computer. No movies to watch, no hot deals to run after, no news to check. I'll be on the computer for an hour and wont even be able to remember what I did. An hour studying on the other hand would of been great.

Uhm, I mean no, i cannot study in a room where there is a computer, I end up wasting my time on the computer rather than studying.

Cannot do it. Sometimes I must surf or play games.
Oh man, when an important paper is due, I have to really fight myself to stop surfing. Sometimes I just do. all right, back to writing that paper.
