...MacBook Pro, and the 2530p has a 12.1-in. screen (as measured diagonally) and a total weight starting at only 3.2 lb., ideal for Virgin America's economy seats. As with most HP business-class computers, you get a slate of useful little features, like a teeny LED night-light at the top of the screen that pops out to illuminate your keyboard, minimizing spousal irritation.

At the moment, most smokers can expect a warning if they're caught lighting up; during a "smoke-in" event at Clarion on Sept. 15, campus police passed out yellow citation cards to protesters who were smoking.
