I don't use logic, but I can tell you this:
The amount of RAM you need to run any audio editor "comfortably" depends on a few things. RAM is directly proportional to successful real-time playback. The more RAM you have, the more likely your editor will not skip, crackle, or freeze. You might be able to get away with insufficient RAM by consistently rendering to file, but thats terribly inefficient.
It also depends on the complexity of any samples you're using. Samples are allocated directly into RAM and remain there as long as they are used in playback. The majority of memory is saturated by samples, not the controller.
I'd say at LEAST 1gig of RAM if you're going to be doing any serious audio work. I have 2gigs and still run into problems from time to time.
A desktop RAM monitor widget has proven very helpful to me for memory management purposes.
Hope this helps.

Under OS X, 512 MB is a minimum to have the OS working somewhat smoothly, 768 MB and it breathes, you can run Office Around 1 GB starts to be ok as long as you don't use much virtual instruments, samplers, plug-ins, then sky is the limit. as Xaosai said, between 1 and 2GB you'll do the job most of the time, but the better is the enemy of good as we say in French.
