Hi.... probably a very old question and maybe a new one.

Hello!

I have a couple of questions, but first :

I have a TP701-cs with 16mb ram, 720 HD. And I was wondering a couple things:

1.....has anyone had any luck getting the 12mm drive enclosure from IBM or others? I notice to buy a raw drive is a great deal cheaper than purchasing an enclosed one.

2.....Has anyone dealt with Portable enhancement products in Winchester Ca? they have a CPU upgrade for the 701cs, and I was thinking about it, FYI: They offer for $500 to replace the DX4-74 chip with an 5x86-100 which would
appear to almost double the power of the laptop. I wanted to see what your opinions were, if any, about this upgrade. The $500 includes replacement of the old chip if you so desire as well, so it seems a pretty safe bet, but I'd like to know if anyone out there has done it yet before I plunk down the $500.

   Thanks!

  Chris
