If you really want a "good" alignment, find a race shop or an indy that does a string alignment.
Trust me , it makes a difference.
A laser is around 1mm in diameter and my guy has a special ruler with a magnifier and is accurate to .5mm!
Yes, they cost more, the going rate here in San Diego is $350. The difference in accuracy does make a difference as well as really dialing in both sides to be the same
BWDZ is right, a proper alignment requires that the car be rolled a little back and forth a little after an adjustment and re-checked
The alignment shops take maybe 30-45 min and a string alignment is 2-3 hours
Also, they should ballast the drivers seat with the approximate weight of the driver when doing the alignment. 1/2 tank gas too
