absolutely nothing - you can buy software at students rates - ie ms office proffesional for £99 if my memory serves . Get a canon printer - ie pixma range as you can pick up consumables dirt cheap ( am currently buying a full set of 5 cartridges for 4.95 + postage)

As for the laptop, it really depends what you want to spend and whether you'll be carting it around - you need to decide on portability vs battery vs weight etc.

Just got a new laptop myself - its a bit of a desktop replacement though - 17" widescreen !!! - *awesome* and quick
