    Hi all,

    I have a spare P8400 and I was thinking about putting this into the M11x, is this possible? I'm not worried about battery life. Also, is this would work then what about a T9500 or a Q9000?

    Thanks

    The CPU on the M11x cannot be upgraded, it is soldered directly to the motherboard.
