I recently got myself a P2532N. The laptop Pig was sponsored with, perhaps that was a major factor in my getting it. It will do everything you asked for an more also came with excel and word but not power point and office. It is also an outdated model now I dont know what the prices are any more. Remember to check out all the sponsors of pros for no other reason than they are Pros sponsors. I was looking at frag lab but I felt they where a bit pricy for what they gave me. Arnt ACL sponsored by frag labs might be able to talk them into something.

To give you a quick few downsides and work arounds Ive found with my laptop. Two USB-3 ports kind of leaves me wishing I had one more ... Both USB ports are next to each other on the right hand side which is where my mouse is so any braided (more rigid) filtered mouse cables (you know those tube things about 50mm down the cable) can be frustrating on small work space. Simple get bigger space, if bigger space on the right hand side is not possible a USB extension is normally a lot more flexible and easier to get out of the way.

Storage space on a laptop is always going to be bad, my work around set up my main computer so I can turn it on and off from my laptop and put in a big storage drive on it. I havent set it up for internet access yet. So if Im planning to travel I can move what I want onto it for any trip I make.

Speaking of internet access, internet access well out and about. Lucky for you you live around Adelaide there are a few companies that have free wireless access in the city and main social hubs. Free is not the quickest but it is the cheapest. I find that my 3g smart phone is more than capable of getting me onto the net and do the stuff I want. Keep in mind Mobile Data is Expensive in Australia and if you go over your limit you can rack up a bill the size of a small car very quickly. I believe that companies now offer sim cards for phones with out phone capability only internet access but I havent needed to look into that yet.

Final thought you might want to nail it down then fly to Sydney and get it. Adelaide will normally charge you a bonus $100 just for it being in Adelaide. You can check pricing online some times a road trip is all it takes to save you money.
