Default Presario 6000

Hi

I have a friend who wishes to upgrade the performance of his Compaq Presario
6000 (128Mb RAM Celeron processor).

Would replacing the motherboard be a viable option? Is it possible to
replace Intel motherboards with an AMD compatible motherboard?

Any views would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Stephen

I just cannot find any Presario FAQ that mentions upgrades.

The best I can find from the Compaq FAQ is:

"So, generally speaking for most users, the board is NOT easily
upgradeable."
