Yep, those count as well. A word of warning though....You will find some who tell you that you can "sweat" the other chips off the board by heating up the solder on the back and then popping them off....I always warn people to avoid doing this....Heating up circuit boards, even carefully, can result in toxic fumes that cause all sorts of nasty diseases. This is why I always suggest only removing those IC chips that can be popped off with a simple screwdriver.
