You will likely need to also install a new 'sink flange' with a new disposer as well as fix any broken plumbing. While it may not be a "huge" job, it can be somewhat involved... especially if you don't have any plumbing experience.

You can find a couple of different installation instructions at the following link. They should give you an idea what is involved to see if you think you're capable or not.

I called in the a couple favors from my mechanically inclined friends[:I][:X] after buying a 1/2 horsepower garbage disposal of the same brand hoping it wouldnt be too much. It took two men about 4 hours but it works like a charm, and I only have to pay them a cheesecake[] so thanks for the reply
