Finally, I found a dual processor mod page: http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/cube/dual_g4_cube/dual_g4_cube.html Looking at the pictures, in particular the systemboard and the space between the processor connector and the IDE connector, I come to think that the Dual-533 from the DA won't fit. The IDE connector is in the way. This is sooo sad. It would have been a great improvement, because 1) the Dual-533 is a 7410 2) it would be two times 550 MHz (or 500 MHz depending on the thermal outcome) 3) Dual-533 processor modules are now fairly cheap Any thoughts?
