THE QUESTION WAS:

I have a Sun Blade 1000 with 750MHZ CPU.
Can I upgrade it (PROM upgrade??) to support the 1.2GHZ cpu?

First of all I'd like to thank christopher.dantos@motorola.com for the
correct answer.

Secondly I'd like to also thank all the other useless replies I got saying
to look at the Sun site where it says it's not supported. No kidding, but
I wanted to know if it will work! (please no flames)

The answer is, YES, you can upgrade a Sun Blade 1000 to use the UltraSparc
IIIcu CPU's as long as you upgrade the OBP Firmware to the latest version.

So looks like I will have a Sun Blade 2000 soon =)

Thank You =)
SC
