Not counting FPU, I think a rule of thumb is the 030 is about 1.2 as fast at the same clock speed for heavy computations. It doesnt feel too much slower in real life. No sound ? Thats kind of odd. Are you sure it isnt the screen cable or the speaker ? Anyway, another 280 board can be had for cheap on ebay. Mad Dog -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
