If you get at least an I5, and better an I7, along with the largest hard drive, it should work minimally. But, actually editing your videos might still be a challenge with managing work space, files and effects on a 12 inch display.

You would probably have great difficulty doing anything except the most basic edits using touch on such a screen. We tried a 32 inch touch screen for CAD work and found that details had to be completed with a keyboard and mouse.

Unless you are really good with keyboard shortcuts, you would probably still want to use a mouse for editing

If you actually get one, I'm sure everyone would be interested in how it works out.

However, I would rather spend $1500 on a real laptop and $200 on a mini-pad if I were serious about editing and also wanted a pad.
