1. What are the fastest SDIMM RAM chips that the T43 can use?

2. Would installing ECC (error-checking) SDIMM RAM chips help or hurt perfo=
rmance of the T43?

3. The T43 sees 3 gig RAM at main boot (BIOS) everytime without problem but=
 the OS only sees 2 gig. Is there anyway to trick/upgrade/override 915GM ch=
ipset to allow OS to see the same 3 gig that appears on boot?

4. Has anyone heard about (or have experience) using SDHC/SDXC cards with 2=
.5 inch IDE adapter as less expensive alternative to SSD? I have learned th=
at SDHC cards have read speeds up to 95 meg/sec and write speeds about 45 m=
eg / sec. That seems better perfomance than even 7200 rpm IDE hard drives.

5. Would installing AMD CPU (lower power requirements) be possible in the T=
43?
