i didn't find it in my original search of the archives.

FYI; that update works fine. I bought a used raq3 for $350, cpu and ram for 
$60, and now have a 500mhz raq4 with 384 megs of ram.

It took about 2 hours to find a dealer that had the right cpu's, and i bought 
his last three for my three raqs. gonna update them all. I noticed it booted 
much faster. I can't say whether you should do it or not, but I am definately 
going to do be on my raq3's.
