I use them if I have to. I usually try to give those away to people who I'm pretty sure won't be returning the bottles to me. They will work fine, just keep them in the closest or somewhere dark.

Most homebrewers prefer brown bottles as they let in the least (if any) uv rays. I have heard that beer in greeen bottles usually has a different smell and taste to it. I kinda agree.
a bottle is a bottle. Just be sure to sanitize. I still have Rolling Rock and New Castles in my bottling mix - make sure to keep them out of direct light
I have used some clear bottles never had a problem as long as you keep them out of direct light as many have already said.
In a perfect world only using brown bottles would be optimum.
