Hmmm. Well then, perhaps I should give it a go. How much does a
replacement cost? it's like below $20, right? If I add the new CPU, will I
also need to add a new oscillator to speed it up, or does it just
wonderfully speed it up without having to modify anything <hopes, knowing
that it's a small chance>
How should I pry that Cache card off of there? It seems so very tightly
attached and it seems as if the CPU is beneath it. It is not soldered on,
is it?
