Is there any way of getting past the 64mb memory limit ?

Without major surgery that is ...

Unfortunately I don't think so, certainly I have never heard of any hacks for this.

no there is no way what so ever to get beyond the 64 mb ceilling with out re designing the powerbookand creating your own motherboard

good luck with that one

you can use a cf card as virtual ram which is faster then the stock hd or ide controller

Yep - VM on CF is the only way. Once you have a PCMCIA (not Cardbus) CF sleeve, you only need a smallish CF card - 64MB would double your RAM for example. Format it as a Mac hard drive, then assign it to Virtual Memory.
