The only straight drop ins from Apple that will increase your speed are a single 500 from a Sawtooth or duals from the Gig ethernet series. In order to use them the duals, you need to have a Uni-N revision of 7 or higher. Here is a link to a download to test. http://newertech.com/tech_support/uni-north.php As to non Apple drop ins, most G4 accelerators will work. Most are either autosensing or have dip switches to work with the motherboard speed. The pins are the same from Sawtooth through Quicksilver, and most manufacturers built their upgrades to fit all of those. You can probably pick up a 900-1Ghz processor on the swap list for around $100.
