According to Everymac, there were three models:
- 233 MHz, 12-inch screen:

- 250 MHz, 13-inch screen:

- 292 MHz, 14-inch screen:

For what it's worth, my opinion on G3-era powerbooks is 'get a Pismo and a 
retail copy of Tiger DVD - the Pismos all had DVD drives and so  will install 
Tiger just fine without having to bother with XPostFacto'. However, that's 
speaking from my experience of doing a lot of publishing production work on a 
Pismo and never owing a WallStreet, while John appears to have had a lot of joy 
from his Wallstreets. 

Of course, more recent macs will be that bit more expensive and I get the 
feeling that Sheryl has paid out a lot of cash already
