upgrading celeron m 370

[tjr508]

i have a celeron m 370 in a via vn800 board. i was wondering if there are any low end core duos out there that i could swap in. it seems intel made their mobile platforms very confusing and it doesnt help that CPU-z has been known to mess up on the duos saying mPGA 479 instead of socket M. mine says MPGA 479 as well but will a duo fit in? doesnt socket m only have 478 pins anyway?

ok i know the pins are different now. i really want to say shame on intel for this too because it has caused hords of mis-information to scatter all across the web. did they ever release a core duo in the old 479 pin config? if so where do i find one?

this is a lappy right ?

If it is you can upgrade to a Pentium M with 533fsb

So look for Pentium M 745,755,765
