A couple things:
Flash will run ok.
there are some things in it that aren't that responsive - but it's not too bad.
(I've got a dual 867 G4 tower and it's fine for me)You definitely want to get more RAM.
OS X loooooooves RAM.
buy another 512MB from Crucial.com - DO NOT GO WITH CHEAP RAM
Macs are picky about RAM - if you get a lower quality stick it could potentially cause you all sorts of problems.Also be warned that the SuperDrive is slower than hell.
It burns DVDs relatively fast - but burning CDs, reading CDs and reading DVDs is noticably slower than on the standard combo DVD/CDr drive.Personally, I don't burn DVDs and I don't plan to so I will always go with the combo drive and use the extra money to get an external harddrive for a backup.
Speedwise - you'll be fine unless you're really super picky.
(I am. I want a G5 like you wouldn't believe. But then again, I've had mine for 2 years, so)
