That's ludicrous, why would you need to swap the box to upgrade processors?

Dave-

Your A500-200-140 has a relative performance of 5.4.  The A500-200-200 has a
relative performance value of 11.

It does require a box swap- you can't just swap out the processors, IIRC.

You might be able to find a used one somewhere.

*Just* curious, because we don't have the $ to fullfill my fantasies now,
and
don't really need it (yet), but ---- remember the faster processors that HP
announced about 3 (?) years ago for the A series.  Are they still available
?

We are on an a500-200-14.
