How to add USB ports without losing power?

I'm going to be buying a macbook, and will need to add at least one extra USB port. I always thought hubs were for small powered devices, but do they make some that can handle high power?

I have a Midi keyboard and an audio interface--both USB. I use a mouse and external keyboard as well.

Would it be best to just plug the mouse and ext keyboard into the hub? Ideally, I'd like to plug the audio devices separately, since I will be switching in and out of my "studio" and would like to keep the mouse just plugged in. This is just a preference, not a necessity.

Thanks!
