My old G4 won't go past the grey screen, and I'm lost on what to do with it. Is there any place where I can sell parts? Or even recycle it?

You could sell it on eBay for spares.
I'd recycle it here at http://www.apple.com/recycling/

Will it boot if you depress the Shift key at startup?

Suggest you join LEM-Swap for buying & selling Mac stuff. http://groups.google.com/group/lemswap
Whatever you do decide to do with it don't forget that unless the hard drive had been zero-erased data that is on it (including files you may have trashed but which have not been overwritten) could be accessed by a subsequent owner.
Hmm, mind end up having to do that. Thank you for the suggestion! 🙂
Just tried that and it seems it's not to apples liking. 😟
Thank you though for the suggestion 🙂
Will definitely check out those sites, thank you so much! 🙂
*Ignorant moment* Depress? 😊
Good point! Will definitely remember doing that before selling.
Thank you!! 🙂
What can I do with my old powerbook G4, that doesn't go on?
