Both the L100 and L110 can be overclocked to 266Mhz if you so desire. Instructions on my site below in the Overclocking section. However, because the L100 jumps 100Mhz from 166Mhz to 266Mhz vs. only 33Mhz for the L110 from 233Mhz to 266Mhz, the =effort= requried to get a faster, overclocked gives a greater return in increased speed on the L100 vs. the L110. The risk of damage to the Libretto for only 33Mhz on the L110 isn't really worth the effort given that you'll only be running about 10-15% faster based on Mhz alone. The cheaper L100 will jump up about 60% in speed alone, so that's worth risking a cheaper L100 model, and the return for many users is a far more useable, faster system. -- In both cases, expect the temperature to go up some. While Xin may not have noticed, physics alone dictate that faster Mhz = more heat generated from the same CPU. Can't get around that no matter what anyone says. Best to put a super-thin layer of thermal paste between the heatsink and CPU before reinstallation. Helps a few who have tried and discovered their Librettos overheated w/o it after overclocking. -- In general about a 90% to 266Mhz overclocking success rate on the L100 model (L110 is the same, but far fewer people have bothered). That's over 30 people that have told me about their successes. The other 10%? Dead Libretto, underclock to 200 or 233Mhz, or simply had to go back to 166Mhz. That's life. ===== adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
