    What do you think about a Processor Upgrade to a Pentium 4-m 2.4 Ghz in the mk4 and mk5 CF-72's? Can it be done right? No comps.

    Assuming the CF-72 board is just like the 28/29's, you can't upgrade the processor. It's soldered on.

    Even still, I think the 72 came with a PIII, so your chances of finding a P4 processor that would even work is slim. The socket would be different on any other laptop.

    I was not aware that the processor was upgradeable. Rep points for you, 48!
