Default Inspiron 6000 upgrade

Probably a long shot, but has anyone ever upgraded the CPU in an Insprion 6000? I've researched it and found they apparently used a Pentium M 770 (or whatever the 2.13GHz model was).

My girlfriend's father is complaining about Hulu video performance and I mentioned about all he could do is upgrade the processor. He added more RAM which, to no surprise, didn't help in that area

Dell provides a complete tear-down of the laptop, so I'm not too worried about getting into it, and I have confirmed the CPU is removable and all... I just don't know if there are any other CPUs that could be used. Heck, I'd give him this C2D I have in my closet if I knew it'd work...but I doubt that.
