- I believe if you install System 7.1, "About This Macintosh..." will report
- that you have a PowerBook 145. System 7.0 and 7.0.1 were released before
- the PowerBook 145 existed, so they report erroneously that your 145 is a
- 140.
-
- If you're running at 25 MHz, you have a 145.
-
- The System 7.1 upgrade may include the new control panel that lets you change
- the processor speed (a la PowerBook 160).
