Guys is acer aspire s7 good for heavy tasks like video editing , 3D modeling , game development or it is not , if not so what is good for that
Note : i want it to be light thin and have touch screen but it is not necessary

Fairly standard laptop in terms of performance. Certainly not designed as a media production device. Lacks a GPU, storage, and the cooling to handle long duration rendering tasks.

Ultrabooks are designed to be light and portable. You will need to look at things like workstation laptops or desktops for video editing, 3d modeling, and game development. You could get by a little better with a 'gaming' class laptop, that would at least have a discrete GPU.

I want a good portable thing to do my work

You have conflicting requirements. Not much can be done about that.

For $1,300 that the Acer goes for I would recommend something like this: http://shop.lenovo.com/us/en/laptops/thinkpad/w-series/w550s/

Looks like it needs ram added at a minimum from the default config. Offers your touchscreen, but it is quite pricey.

Will the macbook be good ?

The Air? Basically the exact same specifications as the Acer.

The Pro would be 'good' but then you are overpaying by about $1500 for the same hardware you can get from any other OEM.
