Hello,
I have a Dell 600m with a fried motherboard. I recently replaced the motherboard with one from a d600 and everything seems to be working fine. I plan to use this as a general purpose Linux notebook and have some questions about specs. Currently it is
1.4ghz Banias pentium M
512mb Ram
100gb 5400rpm HDD
Radeon 9000 videocard.
I plan to upgrade Ram to about 2gigs
And I'm wondering if it's worth upgrading the CPU to a 1.7ghz Dothan CPU which I can get for less than 20 bucks. Would I notice any improvements? Thanks for the time. I'm also open to any other suggestions if I'm missing anything.
