Easy upgrade. First you must update your embedded controller and bios to version 3.04 and 3.19 respectively. Then remove the fan assembly (heatsink), remove the cpu, install new cpu, add some thermal paste, put the fan assembly again, and ready.

Confirmed the T40 works with Dothan 1800 Mhz, and rumor says it goes up to 2000 Mhz, but yet to be 100% confirmed :P
