Older processors had lines of pins around the edge of the chip - about 5mm long. These slotted into a corresponding socket to provide the connections to the motherboard. Pin-less processors have tiny metal balls (like miniature ball-bearings) instead of the pins. These newer connectors simply rest on top of their corresponding pads on the motherboard, and are held in place by a spring-loaded clip.
