So what should I buy if I want a powerful, long-life Windows laptop but don't want umpteen silly ports down the side?

I'm not your personal shopper. I'm sure if you want a machine with no ports someone is willing to oblige you.

Or you can go back to one-size-fits-all Apple-land.

The point was - there's no option available. Nobody but Apple seems to be capable of doing it. That's what this thread is about. If you can't think of any counter examples then that's an argument in my favour not yours!

You're not the target market. Those laptops are for people who want features. If Apple is serving you, stay with them.
