I agree...
In my job as a construction superintendant, many times in the field I have to pull up a 3D archectural rendering of some minor construction detail or finish illustration.
The ability to set the machine up in seconds and display the detail in question can be a real labor, money and timesaver.
The large screen allows quite a few people to see everything easily at once and the large storage capacity lets' one store a lot of CAD files.
I currently use a large screen Acer laptop in this capacity, and I would seriously consider this one as a replacement.
BTW, 17 lbs is NOTHING compared to some of the equipment I have to lug around, and yes I always have AC power available to juice up.
Oh, and for the anti-SUV/ big truck crowd, some people NEED their cargo capacity. I do agree that anyone who does not and drives one is a POSER.
