Would 2gb of data be enough?

You mean 2GB of Ram? Yes, this will be enough to do most tasks. It is becoming more common to have 4GB of ram, and most new systems come with 4GB by default, but 2GB will be fine for the very light loads that you are talking about. You start to want/need 4GB or more when you do more memory intensive tasks, like running many programs at once or moving around large amounts of data.

Be aware though. 2GB is quickly becoming the MINIMUM amount of ram needed. If you ever plan on upgrading this computer in the future or using it for more intensive tasks like gaming and online gaming you are going to want the 4GB of ram.
