How much memory does it require to open MS Word?

What is the second number in my system properties after the CPU description?
Windows XP Pro on a Dell D600 with a Pentium M 1.6 processor.
In system properties the computer information shows:
Intel(R) Pentium(R) M
processor 1600MHz
599 MHz, 1.00 GB of RAM
I don’t quite understand the 599 MHz. I’m assuming this is the actual CPU speed of the Pentium M.
The reason for the question is that I am having problems with the software bogging down and running sluggish. I checked another laptop in the department with the same specs and it shows 1.2 GHz. Why is mine showing 599? Could this be the problem? How do I fix it?
The helpdesk told me that I just had a slower CPU. I know this is incorrect, but don’t know what to do.
Any ideas, please.

How frequently should I defrag my computers' hard drive?
A friend of mine who works in the IT dept told me I should do it at least once a year, is that too little?
Also should I run CHKDSK before or after I defragment it? What are some other programs for Windows XP that I should download and run before or after defragmenting the hard drive to keep it in excellent condition? What are some other ways to keep the hard drive in excellent condition besides doing this?
serious replies only please. If you just wanna troll/spam GTFO.
