Heh! Is it still a quid to a euro?

Could be worse, one euro is about NZ$1000000000 at the moment! Or at least that's what it feels like!!

@ruud: pm too.
@jambalah: On cpu intensive programs you can count on a 20% gain. (dvd playback,some quake, benchmarks) Some programs doesn't care at all. Some programs have a different problems. For example in VGP2 the bottleneck is the thin agp bandwith.
On the OSX side with the proper linux under it you can count on also a 15-20% gain.

I recall a guide floating around on the web, try searching google. IIRC it was a pretty straight forward process...

@ takemehomegrandma:

thankx! I did it and I find out something ...:-)
There's an explanation on pegasoswiki.de too, although is in german language. But with an online translator it could be understood.

Link: Pegasoswiki.de (http://www.pegasoswiki.de/index.php?title=Pegasos:Prozessortuning_G4)

The only problem could be the system stability, as above mentioned by derringer, or the loss of this speed-up with some programs.
And last, the loss of CPU if not well cooled... !!!!
