Old Macs... what can I do with them?

I have a G3 iMac that didn’t take well to my attempt to load Tiger a couple years back. I don’t know enough to try diagnosing and fixing it myself, so I bought a G5.
The G5 recently died (mere days after AppleCare expired, of course). They told me of was the logic board, which costs almost as much as a new machine to repair (funny how that works, no?)
So they’re both collecting dust now. Is there a market for older Macs? Would somebody out there want the dead one for “parts” like people do with cars? Any suggestions (beyond eBay) for where I could sell, donate, or at least recycle these machines? I also have old software, too (probably even older than the G3 and OSX stuff)... are there any Apple collectors or some-such people?
