memory has far greater uses then just brute speed, an example is you have A Powerpoint document, several web pages, email and other applications open, and most are laying idle, they have to reside somewhere if you dont have much memory they will be cached to your hard drive which will be alot slower.
Sure, more memory is always useful, but the usage model you've listed doesn't need anything like 2GB never mind 4GB, we can do all that on a PIII with 512MB of RAM. Only things like 3D games, photos and video editing will need more RAM than that and I can't imagine an Atom will be able to handle those tasks.
