Low-end mac has a list for those G3s as well. Go there and sign up. Take the 9500 for free though, unless it's a choice of one or the other, then take the G3.
Find some cheap upgrades on ebay and the 9500 will make a nice machine, even to run Jaguar or perhaps LinuxPPC. Hell, use the stock processor and pop OS9 on it. Free is good. Always take free. Get the G3 for 100.00 or 200.00 if you can too. You'll have two nice places to start from for next to nothing. However if you were going to pay the going rate for these machines, and were deciding between the two, I'd say get the Beige G3.
