Thanks for get back to us...

First and formost IÕm looking for an inexpensive speed
bump! 

Removing the Hard Drive limits would be a nice
byproduct of the undertaking.

IÕve been told that there is a huge difference in
speed (very noticable) between 733 MHz and 1GB or even
1 GB x2.

And I have a new 80 GB hard drive that I don't want to
loss.
