The other thing you need to be concerned with is that the popcorn was put there to cover up cracks in the plaster ceiling, not just to "update" the look, which was the reason alot of people sprayed the popcorn on the ceilings in the 70's. If you do remove it ( spraying with water and scraping, which should do it as mentioned previous) and find cracks, screw along the cracks w/ drywall screws and plaster washers, scrape out the crack with a canopener, mist w/ a spray bottle and fill in w/ new plaster. It's not that tough, and you'll still keep the integrity of the lath and plaster intact.
