You will have to replace both processors, so you are correct. > > I could buy this one and spend $300-$400 on RAM, don't know how much it's > got in it right now. I really want a DA though, then upgrade the processor > in it later. What processors will the DA's upgrade to? The Digital Audio will upgrade to 1.5 MHz. Although I don't know why you would want to spend that much money to upgrade. It would be better to purchase a newer box ( MDD, etc ) just for the faster bus speed. There are proponents for each model of older G4 Mac. I prefer the DA for bus speed and form factor, (although I would love an additional 5.25 bay in front). Take a look at this link. These are the 7455 Apple chip. Easy to replace, and come with a three year warranty. You can get the upgrades under the 1 GHz speed for a reasonable price . I got luck and got the 933Mhz for $269.00 to replace my DA 533 7410 chip. http://store.fastmac.com/index.php?cPath=13 Good Luck. Wade Perry -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
