Thanks for the comments guys.
Ronnierigel all I do is wheel my scope out (it's on wheels) and let it cool down, collimate, focus and use. Other than cooling down, it takes me 5 minutes to set up. Being in a steel tub and open truss, the scope cools down rapidly, and I also use an air fan to cool down the mirror faster if need be.
Collimating with a Laser is very easy, and generally it just takes a few minor tweaks of the screws on the secondary and the primary before every use or after I go to another part of the sky. Having a premium laser focuser is the key.
Focusing is quite easy as I have a JMI motor focus and the Torus optics focus very precisely to the point where I am chasing the seeing most of the time. Having a 3 digit counter on the focus motor helps.
