[Ti] Ti logicboard and combo upgrade ?

[Ondra Soukup]

So I gonna reply to myself and share my ideas with the list
Is checked pbfixit.com for parts, here are some problems
  -- Heatsinks and the pipes -- The case
     The 550 has silver and smaller heatsinks so there is need to put  
heatsinks from the 550 to 400 case. Also onyx has cover over the  
PCMCIA/Airport cage. I see no problem in that.
400 case - http://www.pbfixit.com/cart/product_image.php?imageid=101
550 case - http://www.pbfixit.com/cart/product_image.php?imageid=776
  -- Keyboard mounting to the case
     Mercury has the left upper mounting between ESC-F1 then the so  
called "screw" between F4-F5 and then the right upper mounting  
between F8-F9.

     Onyx has the mountin between ESC-F1,  then 5 instead of 4 keys,  
F5-F6, then again 5 keys instead of 4, F11-F12 (eject)

  -- Ports at back
     No problem, the only upgrade between these models is processor  
speed and Gigabit ethernet. (RJ45 stays at the same place)
