Tim Bradshaw at the FT (who I rate, and he's a nice chap to boot) says that it struggles to run a number of browser tabs on top of Yosemite:
"...the MacBook struggles with too many browser tabs, let alone video editing. It is the only flaw in a near-perfect laptop."

He's the only person I've heard say this so far but I trust him so I wouldn't bother. I was between that and a Google Pixel 2, I'm going to get the Pixel 2 because it only has to run Chrome and it has an i5 as well as 8Gb of ram.

I've read owners of the new MacBook saying it's fine even for editing video. I edited video on an iMac with a 230ghz or something processor near 15 years a go and although the res was loads lower it still managed. I'm getting bored of tech people making out you need 2ghz plus and 16gb of ram to send an email.
If I bought the new MacBook in gold, would you guys still speak to me?
On a serious note, really tempted by that computer...
