A:AnswerIf you want to run ArcGIS get an i5 or i7 to prevent the program from frequently crashing. Check the specs needed on the Esri website- I seem to remember that they recommend a processing speed of at least 2.2 GHrtz.
A:AnswerThis 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).

If your only planing to work with one or two photos at time, you could get by with this, but for large images or many photo's you'll want to purchase a machine with 8 or 16GB main memory; the you have to get i5 or i7 processor and bigger SSD - so your taking about 3x or more the sale price - if you get this, get the pen it GREAT for photo editing.
A:AnswerYes u could upload youtube videos... Little on the slow side do to the m3 and 4 gigs or ram...
