How much do you think I could get for a blue and white G3 that's been upgraded more than a few times:

Over-clocked 400 G3 with fan for cooling (Originally 300 MHz)
384 RAM
Radeon 7000
Pioneer SuperDrive
Zip 100
Belkin 10/100 Ethernet card (Onboard Ethernet dead)
6 Gb Maxtor HD
60 Gb Maxtor HD
17' Studio Display

What do you think? Am I better off just keeping it around for random tasks?

The display is worth about $100, and the computer about $200 more.

Keep it.

You might be able to sell it as parts on eBay and get more that way than you would for the machine as a whole.

meh forget it, i doubt if you'd find a willing buyer easily.. overclocked and dead ethernet?? nor is the money you'll get for it worth what you've put in.

but if you did find someone, the above figure of 100 for the display and 200 for the computer sounds about right.

i'd run it as a server or something like that,

People on ebay pay more than people on this forum are willing to pay. Sell it there.

You may even split the display from the computer and list them separately. Someone may want the display, but not the machine...
