Logitech Wireless Mouse M505
The Wireless M505 Mouse is a good choice for anyone using Logitech's Unifying USB transceiver, which also works with some of the company's keyboards, but it's priced a bit high considering its limited button layout.

MSI EX720
MSI's EX720 isn't a bad laptop, but it certainly strikes as one with too many shortcuts taken. Still at AU$1,649 it's affordable, and if you're budget and technically minded you'll likely get some decent mileage out of this laptop.
