I've got a G4 dual 450 processor. Does anyone know if it will be possible to upgrade the processors on this machine? Or will I just have to replace the computer?
How could you even think about going from a dual 450 to a dual 500 for all the money? It's a total waste. Processor upgrades for Macs are such a waste of money.

I'm not considering it. I just wanted to know how to go about it because I figure it's those companies who will know if they're planning on faster chip upgrades in the future.

<strong>Well, if you really want to spend $600 or so, you can upgrade to a Dual 500.
Well, I don't know if that's worth it or not. But how would I go about doing that? ie. what company provides the upgrade, do they have a website?
Still more importantly, does anyone know if it will be possible in the future to upgrade to more current speed processors?
B. Sonnet makes a "Duet" card that features dual 500MHz G4's for an MSRP of $699.
C. No word on faster upgrades. All "news" of new upgrades seems to be pretty much user speculation.
