Here's something strange...I tried this "hack" from XLR8 your Mac thats suppose to overclock your bus. Now OS X states that I have a 133MHz bus and 133MHz G4 CPU...hmm, doesn't feel any slower than b4. Weird, time to zap the PRAM.

The hack, as far as I know, doesn't actually do anything (simply makes OS X think that the system is overclocked, but in your case underclocked).
