Digikey sells a 36 MHz part of the same size, part # SE4829CT-ND (I order a lot of stuff from there). I wouldnt try much higher than that. Those 603 get really hot. Now if you could discover where the bus-to-CPU ratio is set, you could crank the bus up and lower the ratio for the CPU. Mad Dog -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
