Elliott,
Thanks for the answer. I'm always thinking of upgrading this beast, or
doing something with it, but in the end laziness (and perhaps common
sense) wins. It used to serve as an iTunes jukebox in my bedroom (with
the help of a USB wireless thingie), but it has been long replaced by
a Pismo
I had a 350mhz that I upgraded to a 600mhz and the only problem I had was
the power light was always amber lol... everything should work just fine
though :)

I always make a point not to piggyback into threads, but this time I
think it'll be the easiest thing for everyone. I have a 333Mhz
trayloader. Is it possible to upgrade it with a slotloader logic
board?
TIA,
Felix

No... It is impossible. *Maybe* with a LOT of hacking, soldering, dremmeling,
ETC; The slot-loader motherboards wouldn't even fit (physically) inside the
trayloader. Apple radically re-designed the slot-load iMac, and it has
different connectors, a different number of connectors, (Much less)
with a smashed
case, with a gig of ram this thing flies

Yes... That... Same difference. :)
But it does have the capability to playback DVD's, which the 350, no-firewire
ones lack.

Except mine played back DVD's just fine.

Oh, well perhaps I was mistaken. When we swapped boards on my brother's, we
thought that the 350 one wouldn't play DVD's... But that was a long time ago,
and we could've been mistaken. I know that between the Lombards, the low end
ones don't have the decoder, and the nicer ones do. Maybe that's

If it doesn't have firewire you must mean the tray loader. The boards are
shaped differently between the two, so I would just reccomend finding a
