A newer G3 (such as an iMac) should work, and would be what I
would consider to be the lowest-end machine you can expect to be
functional. I wouldn't go for anything much slower than 350-400 Mhz,
and make sure you've got at least 128MB of RAM (preferably more), and
several gigabytes of disk space (MacOS X will take at least one GB
all by itself).
The first G3 machines (beige) won't officially be supported by
Apple, but with some third-party help, might also be able to run
MacOS X, and if they've had the processor upgraded (to a fast G4, or
a pair of fast G4s), could even be pretty speedy MacOS X boxes.
