I have someone who needs the fan replaced on their Intel 133MHz CPU.
Unfortunately, the heatsink was glued onto the CPU somehow.  Has anyone had
experience removing these?  How tricky is it?  I'd hate to break the CPU or
mess it up with chemicals while trying to remove the heatsink and glue so I
can put on a new one.
