nope.. totally different processor.. it will not work in a system designed
for a SA-110..
all of it's I/O is controlled by the companion chip, the SA-1111..*afaik*..
so, to actually use the SA-1110, you need the SA-1111..

it's like trying to cram a P-3 in a 486 board.. sure it will work, if you
totally redesign the mobo.. but, then you wouldn't have a 486 board.. you'd
have a P-3 board..
it's just not gonna work.. no dice..
if you want a cost-effective speed bump, just get the Implant from Oscar..
you'd save yourself 185.00 in repair from apple, and you'd get the mild
speed bump you want..
