You are correct that you'll need a header. They are availible through any major distributor, and most of the surplus stores as well. Allelectronics has a [url=http://www.allelectronics.com/cgi-bin/category.cgi?category=192&item=SHS-40&type=store][u]40 pin breakaway header[/u][/url] for $0.50. Soldering them is pretty simple. The first time I soldered was installing headers on the MC68HC11 development board and I had no difficulty doind it. The only issue is you shouldn't leave the iron on the joint for too long because the header plastic will start to melt and the pin may shift, but even in this circumstance you almost always end up with a useable header post.
