Re: PowerLogix BlueChip Pismo G4/500 processor upgrade
Mark: Yup, tried that several times, didn't make any difference for me. It's fast now, though! ... Eric Just FYI. It may help to rebuild the database in Entourage. It can become rather bloated over time and cause it to be slow and unstable. To do this, simply hold down the Option key when starting up Entourage. You will be presented with a dialog box with info on rebuilding the database (this also works with Outlook Express). -Mark -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: PowerLogix BlueChip Pismo G4/500 processor upgrade
Tom: Don't know for sure, the Lombard is the one model of Powerbook we don't have (actually, we had one but it got stolen several years ago!). What I can tell you about the Pismo upgrade is that it is not completely done at the factory. You actually take the Pismo apart yourself and just ship PowerLogix the processor/heat sink assembly. They then upgrade it and ship it back to you and you reinstall this assembly back in your Pismo. I'll let someone else explain why the Lombard is done differently! ... Eric I've never really ujnderstood why the Powerlogix G4 500 Mhz for the Lombard is a user-install, while the Pismo upgrade requires the CPU board to go to Powerlogix. Is there some difference between the daughter boards that I'm missing?

The Lombard (and Wallstreet, iirc) have a separate logic card that contains just the CPU, memory and ROM whereas the Pismo has a single logic board. -Jeff[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You can't brew a premium lager with a kool-aid mentality. --Harold Green in _The_Red_Green_Show_ -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
