Hi there, 

Sadly, It's not worth much at all.  It's pre-OS X which makes it a no-go for almost anyone, even for a donation. Try  FreeCycle? Yes, it will do for someone who needs a computer and doesn't have one.  My guess in that case is that the Illustrator and Photoshop are not useful, but Office and email…. 

And the fact that there's "only" 1/4 memory free will make trouble - whomever takes it should perhaps delete apps that won't be used. Or you could help them before they take it. 

I hope it finds a useful home. I remember my G3 fondly (That was four (?) computers ago.)
