Part of the return on the investment would be learning to perform a processor upgrade by doing it. A CPU upgrade would seem to go hand in hand with bringing the computer up to speed in other ways, but I may be overestimating the benefits and underestimating the risks, hence my questions. In any event, the Sawtooth is becoming a hobby, and the payoff will be in the learning and seeing what I can do. I don't expect to recoup any money spent on it. Thanks for mentioning Monolingual.
