    Hi, guys, I am planning to buy a XPS. One thing I am concerning is that if I can turn off the lights of XPS. I mean the word "XPS" on the top and also some lights on the side.

    I do not want it to be so fancy when I show some results to my advisor or in some "formal" situation.

    Thanks a lot!
