Does anyone have any guides to applying thermal compounds on notebooks?

This guy, uses IC Diamond, making his 3820tg notebook idle temperature as low as 21C. this is his technique:

Thanks. I'm a bit worried about the taking off of the heat pipe step, though. Obviously I will need to be careful not to break the damn pipe, but will I encounter any stickiness or resistance when I actually pull it away from the cpu and gpu? Is there a specific technique for doing it?

Uh... do I need to take the CPU and GPU out of their sockets to take off the heat pipe?

Anyway, looking through disassembly guides for my Asus u80v, I think this is way beyond my depth.
