Processor Question

Hey.

So I was wondering, that if I ever needed to get an Intel i7 975, would I be able to access and remove the existing processor? I have an Alienware Aurora Non ALX. Also, when a new family of Intel Processors come out, and if I need a new motherboard, will I be able to remove and replace the motherboard?

Thanks,

Aplar

Thanks for the information, Chris! I just felt a whole lot of stress rush out of me :)
