I have a dead 800mhz 12" PB due to logicboard. Can I buy a 1.3 12" logicboard and upgrade?

I looked around but no definitive answer.

cheers in advance.

I think you'll find the ports are different. Do you mean the original rev. a 867mhz 12" PB? There was no 800mhz model. They're also a nightmare to work on.

 iMac Core 2 Duo 17" 2ghz 3gb/250gb ||  iBook G4 12" 1.33ghz 1gb/40gb

Main thing is the mini-vga and mini-dvi ports will be incompatible... or rather, won't fit in the bottom case. and that's the minimum.

So, answer is no.
