That's what I ended up doing on the 1010 - but the chips were put in
all the way so that the only exposed part of the legs were the 'fat'

cutters in there and I had to apply a lot of force. If I slip, that
would be no good... nevertheless, that's probably what I'll end up
doing (the cutting, not the slipping part!)

? Why not cut the pins of the IC very near the ic body, and later heat the
pins and pull it with a pair of tweezers? It **IS** easy!
