Atom 3735G Useablilty

[uMinded]

There are quite a few budget Atom 3735g machines out there all of a sudden and was wondering if the 1GB version would suit my needs.

Office Documentation & Automation:
- VPN to remote fileserver
- Office 2013 local install
- Excel 2013 VB programming
- iPython (Web interface REPL)
- 1080p Youtube on Chrome

Would the 2GB be able to handle:
- NI Labview, Multisim, & Ultiboard

I know a Surface would be better suited but the 1GB is $99 and the 2GB is $175 while a surface is 3x more used.

None of these should be a big problem, but really check the system requirements on your software before considering.

Multisim:
- Pentium 4/M class microprocessor or equivalent
- 512 MB of memory
- 2 GB of free hard disk space
- Open GL capable 3D graphics card
