Amazon: Laptop or Whiteboard in Interview?

Hey Everyone!

I am going to interview on-site at Amazon in the coming days. The recruiter gave me an option of bringing and coding on my laptop for the interview. I am divided because there are obvious advantages and disadvantages to this.

Coding on Laptop is much easier. But I think doing whiteboard will give me more leeway when I make mistakes in terms of syntax. Also, there is no compiler either way. Moreover, on laptop, they might also judge me on my coding style and how I write my overall code, which again will give me slight leeway on a whiteboard. So, I am not sure what to do in this situation. All thoughts are welcome.
