I've had my Toshiba 1000 for a while now and am happy with its performance
for the most part. I have a few questions maybe some of you can answer:

1. Is there a way to add a hard-drive? I have my doubts, but maybe I
could replace the 3.5 with a HD and add an external floppy.

2. Is there a way to speed up the CPU with a faster clock crystal? Is there
an upgrade available (286/386)?

3. When playing games (only after programming that demanding Turbo Pascal
assignment of course :-), the screen graphics are flipped. The white is
black, black is white. Is there a simple way to change this? I know you
can change TEXT, but it doesn't affect the graphics screens.
This is fixed if you connect to an external composite monitor, but how about
the LCD mode?

Is this a common problem with all LCD laptops?
