I don't know what a 1GHz logic board upgrade would cost, but if it's more 
than a $200-$300, I'd skip it. You won't get 30% performance bump because 
your memory speed and disk I/O are not changing and only a portion of the 
work is done in the CPU. It's usually not worth expending significant funds 
for big upgrades unless you can at least double your performance overall.

You already have memory and disk and won't be burning DVDs enough to warrant 
the expense of a DVD burner. Better to save your money and apply it to the 
next generation Intel PowerBook in 2006 with Superdrive, fancy features, 
better display, faster disk, bigger memory,  etc. etc.
