Has anyone got a link of someone installing a socket 478 prescott processor and heatsink?

So, I'm looking at that link - correct me if I am wrong. THe heatsink snaps or rests into the support that is prexisting on the motherboard. Once there, you move two alternate locking handles - and voila - you are done?

 
The heatsink has "claws" that grab the mobo's stanchions, like the fourth-to-last photo here, and then the flip-latches apply the traction.
