The short answer is yes. You need about 1GB of RAM to run Chrome along with any other applications open. Right now I have 9 tabs open and Chrome is the only application I am running right now and I'm using 650MB of RAM if that gives you some perspective. I don't have a lot of applications running in the background either.
There are some tweaks to minimize the amount of RAM Chrome uses, but I would personally install a SSD hard drive. Then you won't have to worry about the amount of RAM so much because the swap file is 10x faster with a SSD. I only have 512MB of RAM but I have a SSD and my old computer flies!

Is it OK to replace a 256MB-PC266 RAM with 2 pieces of 256MB-PC2700 RAM without changing any settings?
No. PC 266 and PC2700 refer to your bus speed, how fast information is passed through the computer. Your computer can only work as fast as its bus. If your bus speed is 256, no matter what the rated speed of the memory you put in, it will only pass information at the rated speed of the computer. Having said that, it is possible to "over clock" your bus. I don't recommend that, so I will only say that if you want to do that, Google the information.
