Thanks for the reply Eric.
As said above,I didn't upgraded the CPU and don't plan to do it...
Now,even with a 17' CRT I know that the crappy ati 16mb is "the
bottleneck",so guess I'll spend 20eur in a pc 9700pro and flash it to

I am trying to make this machine really "lowend" on money,because:

oh and about the macbook's 250Gb 5400rpm HDD,wouldn't it be detected

I thin it would be a lot faster than that 7200RPm hdd that I
have,mainly because it has more cache,and it is a much newer
