Word on the street is that 6.5 can be bludgeoned on.  They take a decent
amount of ram.  What video does it have?  Unless the video is exceptionally
awefull, the video should be decent as long as you aren't trying to do too 
much, especially with texturing.  Most likely it is worth $50 if you can feed 
it's power requirements, and it will make quite a nice workstation.
