It's really hard ti choose. Do those programs use lots Of calculations? If so you will want a higher end CPU like an i5 or i7 because that will improve your experience a lot. However I also don't know your budget so I can't reccomend you any particular models.

In this range You can get good laptop
If looking for a mulitpurpose laptop that does, music, games, video and internet, this Sony VAIO VPC-EB42FX/BJ is for you, I used to own a old sony vaio,and it still works. these last long.
PROS:
Good keyboard
Lots of USB ports
Has Intel Wireless Display built in, to view laptop contents on your TV (requires a wireless adapter for the TV). Haven't tried this.
VGA port to show screen on a larger monitor
Not loaded with "bloatware": just a starter version of Norton Security and MS Office.
Fairly light to carry around
Does not seem to get hot
Fan is very quiet; you can hardly hear it.
