[Hidden-tech] Getting rid of old iBook...how do I wipe out the administrator's account

[Kelly Albrecht]

You could create a new admin account, log into it and delete the 
original admin account from there.

If you want to go further than that, you could boot from your install 
disk and use disk utility to wipe the drive completely and reinstall a 
clean version of the OS.
