Hi,

I have a good old Pentium M 1.7 cpu in my portable, a toshiba satellite
pro 2100...
The cpu only has 512k of cache, and the speed is rather low...

512k cache? I don't quite keep up to date with hardware changes so much
nowadays, but I would suggest you're getting confused between processor
types. I suspect the CPU you have is a "Pentium 4 (M)". So it's a Pentium-4,
slightly modified for mobile use. Not a Pentium-M (which would already be
the processor from the original Centrino package).

Anyhoo, forget it.
