Yes, you get full graphics, but performance is terrible (the frame buffer is emulated entirely in software). You can run any browser, and everything works, but probably not fast enough for regular use. I have used Chromium in a pinch to login to Patreon, PayPal, etc.

Gimp also works fine (if very, very slowly). I have used it to make edits to 9front propaganda.
