2-3GB

I suppose that you mean allocated to the minecraft server and not the amount of memory in the machine it self.

Indeed add about another 1GB or so for a physical machine if it just used as a server. If you wish to run your client as well add another 2GB or so to that and make sure your CPU is up the par.

That depends on the OS, if you are using windows 64-bit(which you need) I would say you need to make sure windows has at least 2 GB RAM left.

If the server will only be used for the minecraft server and you go with a Linux distrobution and make sure it doesn't have a GUI you can probably get away with only 1 GB to the OS but if given the option I would still leave 2.

You do realize that there is Ubuntu that uses less than a half of GB on idle right? I can run my Minecraft client just fine on it so windows is not "what you need to do this" at all.

I meant the what you need about the fact that you need a 64 bit OS, probably could have worded it better I admit.
