Re: Possible to double 700 & 750 processors?

[Joshua Hosseinoff <hosseino@yu1.yu.edu>]

The 700 can be doubled.  In fact I just did it on mine 2 days ago.  You 
can get it for $99 from IBM factory outlet (800-426-7015).  The part is 
54G0935 for the 700C, or 54G1032 for the 700.  The price used to be $525 
so get it while you still can.  
It's a user installable kit, and it come with a handy chip removal tool.  
The whole process including the required reinstallation of the reference 
diskette took less than 1/2 hour.  
As for the 750 there is no processor upgrade.
