How to best speed up this iBook

Comment:

OK, I need some suggestions on how to best speed up a G3-500Mhz ibook. Please don't tell me to go buy a new computer or some smart alecky answer like that. Right now I don't have the cash to buy a new PowerBook Pro so I need some creative solutions to squeeze some more speed and oomph out of this laptop. Thanks in advance.
