Kewl. Way kewl. Would you say it's hard to remove the old processor and put the
new one in? I've never done it before. :)

Pentium Pro processors are usually attached to the motherboard along with the
heat sink, using either one or two long metal clips. CAREFULLY remove the
clip(s), making sure you don't damage the white plastic processor socket. Then
remove the heat sink. Lift the lever on the side the Type 8 processor socket,
remove the old PPro chip. Insert the new one, close the lever... Ben Myers
