    Hi All,

    I bought this notebook new back in 1999 and all I have done to it is add a 64M ram module. As I am not a
    big PC user I would like to breath a little more life into this thing. The manuals do not mention what I can do to
    upgrade beside the ram.

    The two things I am looking at right now are the ram limit and the CPU. The manual says that the max is 96M.
    However some of the sites I have visited say it can go the 160M. Anyone know which it is?

    The other question is whether the CPU (AMD 300Mhz) is on a socket and if it is, what is the fastest CPU I can replace it with.

    Thanks
    Ed
