That's a beast of a machine though-eats a lot of juice.
In fairness, I would not personally use such an expensive laptop in the field (dew, dropping it etc..). That's why I use a $300 netbook. If it breaks I can just pick up another one. Great for planetary AVI capture as you can hold the screen up to the focuser and the battery lasts for hours on a full charge (just replaced the battery after 3.5 years)
