I am a novice when it comes to these computers. I have a couple of questions about this topic. Will an MPC-200 from Macsense, also available on Dr. Bott, for $99.99, with a 32 bit architecture work on the 5300c? Will it give me an appreciable speed increase in a 5300c? The 5300c says that it h

I did as you said. The desktop is a 500 mgz Pentium with 128 mb RAM. It ran between 16.7 and 24.3 K/sec on the Quicken portfolio. The PB3400/200/48 laptop gets about 3.7-5.7 K/sec speeds on the same portfolio. A test on the internet said that the speed of the PB laptop is about 1/5 of the typi
