Does anyone know the main differences between the iBook G3 and the G4? Also, is the G4 different from OS X?

There are a few differences. The G3 was the first edition of the G series chips as such its also the slowest, the G4 was used in all the later laptops and has a faster system bus as well.
The latter also has improved harddrive capacity, better graphics cards and more ram. OSX doesn't really work any differently except in terms of speed.
Lastly some of the old G3 iBooks can develope an odour. http://lowendmac.com/menagh/06/1013.html
