Is the processor of this hardware enough to handle creative cloud applications? I am also using VMware and codeblocks for software programming.

I'm basically using it for classes. Might use some light gaming like from steam.

Is this right for me? null

This is fine for anything that it cloud based, it does include AC networking, which if you have a AC router, is a huge benefit when working with a fast newwork connection (4x better than N if reasonably close to router). It also fine for light gaming (my wife place many Facebook games, this is just as good as i5 in her new 17" Dell notebook)

No the m3 processor is way too weak for you. You would need an i7 for your needs and 16GB of RAM if you're planning on running 2 Windows 8+ virtual PCs
