Rat shack here in the seattle area doesn't even stock heat sink compound 
anymore :(:(:(  I had to go to supertronix, a local overpriced place to 
find some plain white heatsink compound, I was putting it on a couple old 
pentium pro chips and didn't need the latest and expensive silver compound 
(at $10 for 2grams )
