As Krazy said, Target Disk Mode (hold T on startup) or File Sharing via Ethernet (you may need a crossover cable if your Macs aren't too recent) or CarbonCopyCloner
Incidentally, depending on the exact fault, your iBook may qualify for the iBook Logic Board Repair Program even if it is outside warranty/AppleCare.
If you do "bin it" you could probably get a fair few £'s on eBay if you sell the parts like the TFT, HDD, RAM, modem, optical drive, keyboard etc.

pick up a wee USB memory stick (512MB one or so) and just copy it off onto that...we use them at work and it plugs in to OSX/OS9, Win98 (with driver) and XP no probs....very handy
