And here I thought myself and randomdreams were the only people who still soldered anymore. :)
I'm pretty good with a soldering iron (my Dad taught me when I was 8), and I've had mixed luck getting stuff in/out of boards, particularly modern motherboards which seem extra heat-sensitive. It's probably worthwhile to get some solder wick if you don't have any hanging around, I find it works better than the suckers.

I'm interested to learn how this turns out.
