I think you will be able to video edit on it but it will clunky and renders will be slow.

I can agree with that.
I've got a 2.59Ghz Intel Celeron with 768mb ram and I rendered a 4 second video clip using EffectsLab pro and it took 20minutes.  |

Welcome to the board Nick.
A celeron is a bit pushed for most video stuff - you would be well advised to upgrade if you can.
You would get a useful performance increase for video work by upgrading.
I dont mean to be presumptuous but if you are strapped for cash there always s/h bargains to be had - something like fast sh p4 / amd would do the trick.
They may not clock much faster but I am pretty sure the number crunching speed on celerons isnt that good.
