:-).. I would actually, as I can't work due to ill health, so money is in
real short supply. I'm tempted though, as I can't believe how cheap RAM is
right now! There's no reason not to have 512Mb, which compared to my
48Mb(!!!) would itself make a huge difference.

I've been looking at 850MHz Celeron of 900MHz Duron, around that level, but
don't want the 810 chipset, as I'm worried that the shared memory
architecture and the modem and sound will be a noticeable hit on

upgrade immediately.

What did you upgrade FROM to 800MHz Bob, and was performance enhanced
noticeably, and was it worth doing?

All the best,

Andy Cocker
