I'm with you...

300Mhz G3
384MB Ram
6GB ATA HD
9HB SCSI HD
Mac OS X 10.3.4
ATI Rage128 16MB RAM
400Mb FireWire
Apple V.90 56K Modem
10/100Mb Ethernet

Works grate. When I had my 1.7GHz AMD box, I actually used this one more. Mostly because Mac OS is so much nicer then Windows and I have to use Windows at work (my main OS is actually OS/400 but I access it through a Windows box).

I'm thinking upgrading to the 2GHz G5. This computer works greate on my small home programming projects but things like bootstrapping GCC take about 10 hours. The nice thing about Mac OS X is that this comuter is still usable during the GCC bootstrap. (I want to help more with some FOSS projects but most of them are too big for me to compile in a reasonable amount of time.

PS: It's a B&W tower. I've had it for close to 7 years and it's still running strong.
