Yeah, it's heavy for sure... especially when I throw the 90W PS into the backpack too. But with a lit bit of customization the 17" M6x00 series has room on board for 4 SSDs and 32 GB memory.
That's plenty of horsepower to run a few virtual machines on the road. My record so far is 21 VMs running simultaneously, but normally I try to keep it to 14 or fewer.
