[G4] DP in a Sawtooth?

[David DelMonte]

I put a dual 1.2 Ghz processor card from Powerlogix in my sawtooth. I 
also upgraded the power supply and the mother board to gigabit 
ethernet. My computer is quite fast now (I dont have benchmark tests 
but an indicative test for me was compressing cd tracks in iTunes. That 
went from 5 something to 18 something).

I realize I spent more money than if I'd bought a new computer, but I 
had a lot of fun doing the upgrades - it's sort of a hobby. I'm about 
to upgrade a cube..

David

ps. While the processors were rated at 1.2Ghz, they actually run at 
1.3!! bonus.
