You should get as much RAM as reasonable. My upgrade to 16 GB RAM on my laptop made running a Windows XP VM under VMWare really smooth.
As for Ubuntu, I love it myself, but it has some drawbacks for developers - principally the lack of full development suites (CF Builder, FlashBuilder, etc) on the platform. Other than that it kicks ass.
