I bought a PowerMac G4 350/10gb/64mb ram/zip/dvd for 25 dollars.

Everything is stock, but when I opened it up, I found 3 ram sticks. 2 64 sticks and a 512. and now that I look more at the inside, i see and airport card!

How much of a speed boost is it from a G3 35MHz to a G4 350MHz?

Practically none unless you have software that uses AltiVec.

G4 might even be a little slower then the G3 at the same speed without Altivec. Depends on the cache the G3 has.

I would say like 11x? (35x 10=350Mhz + 1 extra gen CPU = 11(?)
