Kona*, I agree it sounds like an issue. You're talking about something different to what I was thinking (occasionally having to click two or three times if you don't get the 'x' dead-centre).
~REALiTY, it sounds like a 13" MBP would do you fine, depending on how heavy the video editing is going to be. For things like surfing, email, document writing, photos and basic video the 13" is fine. This is my first Mac (13" 2001 MBP base model core i5 2.3GHz) and it flies along at all the stuff I've tried on it so far.
OS X takes a bit of getting used to, but is very intuitive. It helped that I had extensive prior experience with Linux, but even a plain Windows switcher will soon be a power user. And yes, it definitely manages memory and cpu time better than Windows. 7 has improved on this a lot, but you still can't beat *nix for that sort of thing, and OS X is built on a Unix foundation.
