RE: [cobalt-users] Possible to upgrade CPU on RAQ3?

[Brandon Wheaton <brandonw@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

I dunno what RaQ3i you have, but mine has a regular Socket 7 AMD K6-2. 
It is COMPLETELY upgradeable. Just pop the lever, take out the old 
processor, plop in the new one, close the lever, replace cover, power 
on and go.

Take care.
