I don't follow...

What applications do you plan to run?

Last I checked Microsoft had mastered the art of issuing new OS's that are worse than their predecessors. In fact, it ought to be an MS trademark.  :lol:

Last I knew, 10.0 was only a Beta/Prototype. I don't know if it was even massly released. 10.1 was the first real version.

Is that including shipping? Ebay they usually go for $30-60 without shipping.

I found it on craigslist. So either I'd have go and pick it up or the seller would have to deliver it.

Well they do go for cheaper, but specs vary so much, as well as condition, and included items. It's your choice.

Now that I have looked into it (like checking eBay and asking a few other people I know), I don't think $100 is a very good deal for the G3, especially when I see higher spec PowerMac G4s going for less than $100 on eBay.
