Mac OS X version 10.3 400mhz 256 ram
I was going to chuck it out but could I use it for anything exciting?
Edit: Houston, we have a problem. No admin password and no discs. Am I fighting a losing battle here?

Exciting? < It is a clicky

Don't know if it would count as being 'exciting' (or useful to you), but the G3 iMacs are fairly easy to set up to use in kiosk mode using either Opera or iCab. If you have MAMP running on it in kiosk mode the possibilities are quite wide and varied for a self contained interactive display.
They look a lot cuter than most beige box kiosk computer set-ups you could buy commercially to do the same sort of thing.

If I had a spare one I's install OS 9.2.2 and MacMame and just use it for old school games, works great! BTW if you need an OS 9 retail disk let me know I'll give you an ftp download of a disk image for you to burn and boot from.
