<< [...] > 2. Can a processor pulled from a B&W work in my Beige?
Possibly, but it's hit or miss. I'd advise against it because you could do damage to the beige or the cpu or both. >> I'm using a 400 MHz B&W ZIF in my beige, no problems whatsoever. I've never heard of the transplant not working, unless it were physically damaged, or being a threat to the mobo or itself. Does anybody have any stories of that happening? I've read of problems using Yikes! G4 ZIFs, that expect a 100 MHz bus speed on the mobo. << [...] > 5.

It's plug and play. >> It's a little more complicated than that on the beige, as you also have to change the jumpers on the jumper block to recognize the new speed.
