I've got an HP laptop here that should run lightroom OK. 12" screen I believe.
I'll get it installed and have a play tonight if you like

Just FYI the Surface Pro can run it totally fine and works well too if your budget extends that much.

As above: XPS 13 or retina MBP13 depending on what platform you prefer

But I would hold out a couple months if possible because Intel just announced its 6th generation core iX CPUs
