I think it can be re-soldered on the motherboard, but I'm not sure I would
classify this operation as "something that your average computer hardware
tech could fix"...

The first thing would probably be to open it to assess the damage. Since you
probably haven't got your hands on it yet, it's kind of a guess...

CLM /C-L-M/: [Sun: `Career Limiting Move'] 1. n. An action endangering one's
future prospects of getting plum projects and raises, and possibly one's
job: "His Halloween costume was a parody of his manager. He won the prize
for `best CLM'." 2. adj. Denotes extreme severity of a bug, discovered by a
customer and obviously missed earlier because of poor testing: "That's a CLM
bug!"
