    Has anyone opened the bottom of their 5672 by where the cpu is? I wanted to know if the cpu is easily reached, and if there are any restrictions to taking it out.

    Im asking this because I intend to swap in a Merom when they become available and my current Acer has 1 of the screws that hold the heatsink on the cpu hidden so that it cannot be reached with a screwdriver, and thus the cpu cannot be taken out.

    Is this the case with the 5672 also?
