Default Processor upgrade for Acer Aspire

Hi, all.

I have an Acer Aspire 36090 laptop. I have just upgraded the RAM; which I'm pleased with! However, would like to try and upgrade the Intel Celeron 1.6GHz, 533 MHz FSB, 1 MB L2 cache processor to the max for the motherboard (which I don't know what that is at the time of writing).

Done processor upgrades on desktops before without problems. However, I'm thinking laptops are a different ball game as far as ease of processor upgrading goes, in that there may enhanced cooling needed, and that may be complex to install.

Does anyone have any thoughts on the viability of my proposed upgrade?

Thanks,

David.
