Minecraft reckons it needs 2GB RAM, so you could be goosed. It also says it requires a 2.6GHz processor clock, which guess is faster than yours. However, I'm pretty sure we're running it on a machine without that kind of processor although it does have 2GB of RAM and is crippled by running Windoze.

There is a demo of Minecraft (see the page you linked to), so try installing that and see what happens before spending any money.
