If "high resolution stuff" means high definition, then bigger and faster is a must. The storage requirements for high definition are a lot more than for standard def, as is the processing power. "Amateur level video work" doesn't mean that a decent level of processing/storage won't be needed. High def pushes the current limits of professional editing systems.

Just my opinion,

A friend of mine is looking into a new computer for video work. I am guessing she is making videos of some sort, probably high resolution stuff, and is seeking something that runs at 2.66 GHz or faster. I guess that faster is always better for video, but would she truly require that fast a processor for what will basically be amateur level video work?
