Darrell,

Not specifically for an observatory but, in my 30yr career as a professional mariner the introduction of computer screens on the bridge of a ship introduced a huge problem in terms of maintaining night vision.

The solution was red perspex, held in place by some self adhesive velcro... & turn down the brightness...

If your eyes are dark adapted you will have no issue using a laptop this way & you will maintain your night vision perfectly...

Cheers
