I doubt it can be done, but give it a whirl! (It'll involve serious modifications, though.) The main reason that the 2300 is slower than a 1400 with a very slightly faster processor is, as I understand, because the 2300 lacks level 2 cache. Please correct me if I am wrong. Things that I wish could be done to upgrade a 2300 (in no particular order): 1.)PCMCIA cards (through a desktop reader, for example) 2.)Level-2 Cache 3.)G3 4.)Ethernet plug instead of Modem 5.)Espresso maker instead of serial port Tom > It pains me to see all the PB 1400 processors that gave their > lives because > of their owner's quest for G3 speed.
