Hi,
I seem to remember someone offering a G4/500 or 550 upgrade for the
Lombard series, but I can't seem to remember which company. I know
the WS I and II have available upgrades from Sonnet, but I'd like to
bump the Lombard up.
Also, are there any heat issues with Lombard/Pismo systems
No, OWC has nothing for the Lombard, just a 500G4 for the Pismo. Go to
Daystar or to FastMac.

Yeah, that's real hot. One thing you might check is where the heat

simply be venting towards hard drive and cpu and overloading fans.
