go here http://www.apple-history.com/frames/?

and see if you can match up the specs to any of those

I think if it has firewire, it is a pismo, if it doesn't, it would be a lombard.

Ok its a lombard. Glad I solved that. Now next question, Is it possible to run 10.3 on this model or is 10.2.8 as far asI will get?

Here's Apple's "official" document on this:

(God, how ugly is that original PBG3? )

And here's the official compatibility list for Panther:

You should be OK, assuming you have enough RAM and hard drive space.
