I know I'll probably get thumbed down.
But, maybe just maybe, instead you get off your ass and see the outside, run in a park or around your neighborhood for a mile or two. Work your ass off to accomplish something.
The internet is an amazing tool, but instead its used as a way for people to just sit and waste their life away.
I'm not saying its not a cool idea, but it reminds of a Daniel Tosh Joke. "I spend of time thinking about what If A guy just drove up and tossed me the keys to his Lamborghini, is that wasted time, I'm not sure."

I would agree with you 100% a couple of years ago. But now, through some very serious events I won't go into right now, I suffer from severe social anxiety. It is /incredibly/ difficult for me to get out of the house and walk down the street without having a panic attack. Due to this I've put on a lil weight, and so the idea in the content would be perfect for me, I could lose the weight without the risk of giving myself a panic attack. The internet is my home because it's the only place I can actually say a full sentence to someone.
As long as you've got a decent amount of room man, there are lots of workout plans. Some even labeled "nerd" workout plans. Pullup bars are decently cheap for on the door ones. Great cardio plans that you can do in a pretty small area. I won't lie man sometimes its hard to motivate yourself, but that is the key, motivate yourself in some way, set short term goals.

"...motivate yourself in some way"
Isn't that the whole point of the proposed laptop/treadmill? By running you get internet, therefore getting fit at the same time. Frankly for some people I think this could be really effective - especially considering it would also reduce their time on the internet because you can't run forever.

That is why I closed my rant with "I'm not saying its not a cool idea". Also realize running treadmill isn't actually the most effective way to lose weight. Things like circuits where you are constantly switching from workout to workout are better, building muscle is the best way to get rid of fat.
