Native Instrument's Kontakt is the shiznat, however....a G4 processor is
"recommended". That doesn't mean you can't run it on your G3, it just means
it'll be a bit slow (I know because I am running it on a G3 myself). If you
have at least 512 Ram and a 350mhz G3 or higher you should be ok.
Here's a good link if you have questions on Kontakt:
www.worldofsampling.co.uk/Kontakt.shtml
There is also Unity DS-1 by Bitheadz. I actually have never used this
soft-sampler, but I have heard good things about it. It has been out now for
over two years so I would venture to say that the kinks have been worked out
(unlike Kontakt which has only been shipping for a few months).
Here's the Bitzhead web site:

Good luck (hold on to that MPC, you'll be sorry if you don't-trust me)
