I love the G3 PowerBooks! I drove a Pismo upgraded with the G4 card, maxed memory, and a CardBus Wi-Fi card for N150 speeds in OS X; I dual booted 9.2 and 10.4 Tiger.

I built that machine from three broken PowerBooks in 2006 and used it daily until my ex-wife took it in the divorce back in 2010 (she hated Macs but she knew it would hurt me to take it). Otherwise I'd probably still be using it for basic tasks like distraction-free writing or classic Mac games.
