Just out of curiosity, when the 701 was superseded by the 560 IBM's explanation was that the Pentium needed more ventilation than the 486 chip it had inside, making the form factor obsolete. But now the Tillamooks are out and they run cooler and require less power than the 486-75 TCP in the Butterflys ever did. Is there a reason someone couldn't get one into the case, other than the ridiculous expense of such a scheme? Barring that, what about the new AMD mobile processors? epbrown Stop by the Portable Computing Center for reviews, editorials, and the FAQ on laptop computers. http://www.enteract.com/~epbrown
