That's not really very good spec nowadays. Must be about 5 years old I'd guess.

500Mhz G3 would be fairly slow now - although it depends what you want to do with it. I used to have one of these models.

What price is it going for?

Here's a place that sells slot-loading DVD drives for the G3 iBook.
