Replacing Logic Board between SR and Penryn possible?
My 2.2ghz Santa Rosa logic board on my MBP is dead. Is it possible to replace it with a Penryn one without a hitch? Or must it be an SR?
Is this a good question?

There's quite a bit of swapping necessary to upgrade to the Penryn:
In other words, I don't think it's financially worth it. Replacing all these parts is probably getting as expensive as a refurbished newer model machine.
Sorry!

Look at it positively though. You'd gain Multitouch (from Top Case) and you'd have a 64-bit EFI.
