IMO it's worth buying a cheaper laptop ($300-500) and a really nice desktop ($1000-1500), rather than buying that really nice laptop ($2000+ for similar specs) and constantly having to worry about power.
As a matter in fact, thanks for the link.... I'm looking at the EON 11" right now.
(and yes, I do have a performance laptop from back when I built my rig)

(feel free to buy it.... $600 shipped)
