> Is anyone running Linux on a Pentium 4 3.06 GHz system?

Nothing that fast, but it screams on a Dell PE 600SC @ 1.8GHz.

> Is there a big difference between running with 512 MB RAM and 1 GB RAM?

Depends 100% on the application.

> Are Promise RAID controllers well supported?

Dunno, haven't tried them recently.

> Do they run as fast as 3ware RAID controllers?

Not in my experience.
