Am sooooo glad I read this - I'd nearly bought an 040 CSPPC in the past with the intention of upgrading it to 060.
I'd have been rather pi55ed to find BGA work required.
Goddam phase 5!! Why not just use 060 sockets in the first place for the extra few pence?
Good hardware for the most part, I suppose its a small grumble - but to use BGA 040 sockets on their last model?!?! One would have expected them to learn from the upgrade requirements of the blizzard 040/060 and CS 040/060 and not limit their hardware to being more-or-less non-upgradeable.
