Thanks to all you guys, my T40 upgrade is done.

Details:

1- 1.5 to 2.0 CPU

2- 30 gig to 60 gig 7200rpm. Details on clone here http://forum.thinkpads.com/viewtopic.php?t=71165

3- 512 ram to 1.25 GIG

4- 802b to 802 G (thanks RichK)

This is like a brand new laptop - really nice performance for minimal investment.
