Have not looked at the PS fan, so I can comment. But if you can open the case you can replace it.
The 4100 were shipped with 2 different ram cap 64m & 128meg. If you run JVM you need 128 for it to run smothly. PC100/133 low density Max cap 256meg.
I have 128Mb, so I won't worry further.

Me too by the sounds of things.

I can't get a large enough image without passing the minimum focal length of my camera (and it going blurry). Is this clear enough?
