1) Should run fine on 1gig with 1.88g cpu or faster. 512mb will depend on the graphics card and cpu.
2) Yes to zRAM on 1g. Haven't tried it on 512mb, some older RAM won't allow it.
3) zRAM should work well on the Chromebook but installation might be a little different. The smallest HDD I have personally setup LL 3.4 on is 30g with 1g RAM and a Celeron 2.40g cpu but 16g should be more than enough to allow swap and still have room.
4) xscreensaver still worked in 3.0 but I'm not sure about 3.4. Check the help manual for locker explanations.
5) XP viruses are everywhere. Good news they are highly unlikely to affect LL 3.4. As long as you are not opening the USB with wine don't worry about it.
I test a lot of Linux distros and I absolutely recommend Linux Lite first to new users. Also this is one very rare forum on the Internet: one where the developers participate regularly, and are generally good natured.
