I have a choice of purchasing one of 2 similar models of a mini laptop with different processing speeds, the newer model [266Mhz] I am being told was just a "factory overclocked" version of it's predecessor [166Mhz]. I am being told that I can solder 2 wires on the older version and this will increase the speed from 166 to 266Mhz.
I called the company and they said they are not aware of this or of any other way at all that the processing speed can be upgraded. The guy who is selling the item told me if I should buy the item he will provide exact instructions and pictures that will show me how to increase the speed but the item he is selling is not in good physical condition so I would like to purchase another one that's in good condition but then since i won't be buying it from that same person he will not give me the instructions which is why I am posting here, can anyone tell me how else I can go about finding out about the 2 wires that need to be soldered? Or any advice willl be appreciated, if you're wondering why I don't just purchase the newer version it's simply becuase it's out of my budget, thanks.
