You do indeed remember correctly. Last year I was definitely interested in visual but the situation was also forced upon me by computer problems that could not be resolved quickly.
I now have a dedicated intel NUC I use even in the observatory at home, so that is resolved. Notwithstanding that I will be participating in both activities. Visual is a much more 'in the moment' experience and the visual field is extremely 'civilised'.
This year will be different too because I'm abandoning the bunks in favour of my new Avan Cruiseliner (the same type as the one Renato used to bring along). I have a new WiFi router which will be kept inside the Avan and the NUC will connect to that so imaging can be light free at the scope and in my very own warm room.
