[Gllug] CPU heatsink question.

Just noticed that one of my CPU fan's is no longer turning, a few prods
and it'll manage a brief limp upto the heady RPM's of about 1000.
Doesnt seem to be a big problem, as it's still working, but what i want
to know, is how difficult is it to remove the heatsink?  im thinking
about all that thermal bonding material between it and the CPU.

having never removed one after installation, what does it look like down
there, and will i need a scalpel to surgically remove it?
