It should have sufficient processor speed for online videos so my estimate
would be that upping the RAM may provide some help. I'm not sure what the
max RAM is for those machines but 1gb may be enough. Also ensure there is
ample space on the harddrive. When a harddrive gets full, it slows down
everything else, especially streaming from the 'net.
