Sure, I get jittery easily, don't like sitting in front of a desk either. I'd love a small, really powerful machine as well. I'd also love to sail around hawaii with an entourage of super models, but that's not going to happen. If you want a really powerful laptop - on par with a strong desktop machine - you need to be prepared to drop some serious bank. That's just how it is. Otherwise, leave desktop tasks to desktop machines and use laptops for what they where intended for - non-intensive tasks on the go.
