    Hmmmmm.....never heard that you can upgrade mother board on notebook (dell). I assume that if you are computer wiz, you might build your own laptop, but I don't know anything about that.

    On second thought, even though you can't "upgrade" the motherboard, you might be able to find another 600M on eBay with a better motherboard and swap them. Unfortunately, it is rare when parts, even from the same manufacturer, will fit one another (just ask IBM...).
