I ordered one of these this morning, not nearly as nice as the previous 
config but, enh, they're cheap and include a nice framebuffer. Would 
Ken's Creator 2d work in an U30 for an extra head? What's the max CPU 
these will take? Bill mentioned the 360mhz 4mb. And how much of a 
performance increase would I see? I plan on using this for light cad 
and development. And, finally, anybody got cheap ram for sale? If I 
have to I'll jam mine full with the 32mb sticks from sunguk but I'd 
rather use higher density dimms.

Thanks
Mike

Ooh, if you ask nicely she'd probably give you a keyboard/mouse.
