      Laptop camera... can't legally bring into many courthouses. For a feature I'd never use, that's a pretty big minus.

      #1 - do they still ban phones with cameras? Blackberry still makes some models without cameras for that reason.

      If you tell security you made a pinky swear with a judge not to take photos in the courthouse, they will let you bring in a camera.

      Companies involved with defense contracts don't allow cameras, too.

      yes, but for the other 99% of us, having a camera in a laptop is an occasional large plus. With 1hr's work, I'm sure you could remove the camera and sell it on ebay anyway.

      Oddly they won't let me bring my charcoal grill to court either. What is the world coming to?
