PLM, If you already have an XLR8 zif carrier card, I highly recommend the Powerlogix 900 mhz zif from macsales.com. Everyone who uses my S900 after the recent upgrade is amazed at its finder responsiveness. I think having a level 2 cache running at the SAME speed of the processor makes a big difference, as well as the increase in raw processor speed.
Aside from having to modify an old PC heatsink retention clip for the carrier card's heatsink, the installation process was a breeze. Let me know if you have any other specific questions that you would like me to answer.
