Believe me, I'd love to do that. Unfortunately, the
processor/motherboard in the T450 use the SECC packaging for the PIII,
wheræs the L733r uses the PIII Coppermine with FC-PGA packaging.

Maybe, just maybe, if I hack up my old PIII-450, I can jam the new
Coppermine into the old package. :)

One more thing... The L733r doesn't technically have an APM BIOS. There
are no APM settings in the BIOS setup. Instead, it supports ACPI, which
I expect to work with the FreeBSD APM device driver for two reasons:

1) Linux APM used to work with this PC
2) I thought ACPI mobos were backwards-compatible with APM.
