Most of those things will be no problem.  I'm not sure that playing videos 
would be a nice experience - they may well be choppy, as you can't easily 
cache the stream in that amount of RAM.  You'd just have to try it and see.

USB wifi can be tricky, but there are people who would help you get this 
going.  You might like to bookmark

it might help you.
