[QUOTE="Chamorro, post: 32100"] You can go to [url=http://eshop.macsales.com]OWC[/url] and check out your processor upgrade possibilities. For HD's, I'd recommend Western Digital. Check what kind of ATA bus you have (i.e. ATA 33 or 66 or 100 or 133); I know that ATA 66 maxes out @ 137GB, no matter what size HD you install. For the money, you may be better off getting a newer Mac as your main machine, and either using your old one to get a little money, or keeping it and running it as a file server or internet browser/word processor-type machine. A newer machine will get you faster RAM, faster system bus and compatibility w/ larger HD's. [/QUOTE]
