Re, If I read correctly,and Im awake ,your machine should do well with just changeing the CPU chip,100 to 133 bus speed will not change,this is figured into the CPU max clock speed output, Or same chip,higher bus speed faster overall,I have similar machine,G4 350 2xagp Im waiting for the 800 mhz chip to fall some more in price.but if you are a buissnesss this is deductable, for me its not, hope this helps
