yes, and can be easily donehowever, it eats too much batt and runs hot. and the extra speed gained serves no purpose, unless you can find an PPC software that overwhelms the 600+ Mhz advanced xScale Proc (with WMMX summore)
edit: to get on topic, I have no idea why you sais ppl told you oc'ing a laptop is not possible. AFAIK, most alienware lappie are factory oc'ed
and fairly new laptop can even be oc'ed easily
but the trend for laptop is more to UNDERCLOCKING. it's soo famous now that Intel decided to lock the lowest voltage a normal mobile proc can run to avoid disrupting sales to its very expensive Ultra Low Voltage cpu's. underclocking will increase batt life significantly, which in mobile computing is paramount
edit2: biggest challenge to laptop oc'ing is the temperature - due to the compact cooling feature, extensive cooling is not possible. heck, running a normal clocked proc at 60+C is considered normal in lappie.
