  If you have the Pentium CPU that is marked as a 75Mhz part, then 100Mhz is
recommended as the first speed to try.  The 75Mhz CPU cannot be pushed too far
or thermal overheating easily occurs.  100Mhz is a relatively safe bet, giving
you a decent chance of a running, faster Libretto w/o having to undo the
overclocking if it does fail.

  If you have the Pentium CPU that is marked as a 120Mhz part, but used
underclocked in the L50 at 75Mhz, then 166Mhz is recommended as the first speed
to try.

  I'd say 166Mhz w/o consulting the Intel documents on this processor.
  That would be 2.5 x 66Mhz.  If there is the 3.0x option on the motherboard,
I'd try 200Mhz as well, but that would be pushing it a bit - you may find that
you will have to slow it down to 166Mhz later.  However, if you have the time
and patience to solider and desolider the work, go ahead and try the faster
speeds first.  

   My recommendations take into account the greater failure rates at the
fastest speeds, and I suggest a slower speed for those wanting to only take one
whack at overclocking their Libretto and having a decently good chance of it
working in one try.
