Anybody ever changed a Thinkpad's crystal oscillator?

Has anybody has ever changed a Thinkpad's crystal oscillator as a mod for faster or better performance or better stability? Seems to me that such an approach is a bit extreme for everyday overclockers used to DIP switches or jumpers. However, I am sure there is some Thinkpad owner out there who has given it a shot. Anyone?

I've heard of this practice being done on older Macintoshes and some 286 PCs but not much.
