I recently aquired this computer from someone.  I think it has a speedy 600 MHz
Celeron.

The CD drive doesn't work, so I'm looking out for a good deal on a cheap CD
drive.  I'm wondering about upgrading the processor -- and how easy is this to
do?  The only thing I have done before is swap out a hard drive, insert a second
CD drive, and add RAM.

Is this type of computer easily upgradable?  Would you make a suggestion on what
kind of processor I can add to it?
