[G4] Upgraded Processor, Memo !

[Steffen Vinding Nyden]

Kinda a tangent, but here is a question...will the 450 mps, (and other 
pulled processors of that nature) work on a Sawtooth motherboard if one were 
to replace the Apple-supplied processor?  If so, do you know of 
anywhere/anyone who would be willing to sell the thing?  Thanks!
