Can I change the processor to be faster?

I would like to put in a faster processor in my Apple powerbook G4 12 inch. I was wondering if this is possible and where I would get a new processor from, how big can I go? Is this something I can replace myself or will I have to take it somewhere?

If you have the PB 12" alu 867mhz model then there's no way to swap to a faster logic board but if you own the DVI one you can go up to 1.5Ghz. Now replacing the logic board in the 12" alu model is a difficult job if you have no experience with these models. Reinstalling the cabling at good locations inside the bottom case is a challenge. Best way to remember how it was installed is to take many picts and notes as references during the take apart procedure.

It's really not worth it to change the processor, if you want to do that, it is an incredibly expensive and difficult operation, not to mention getting ahold of a processor in the first place. And then you might as well replace the whole Logic Board. You're better off just maxing out your RAM, putting a nice fast HDD in there, or just replacing the whole unit.
