still don't have a good feel for an answer. For example, arctic silver (and comparable products) say they are thermal conductors and not electrical conductors, yet the fine print says it may end up shorting out circuits -- in plain English, that means it is an electrical conductor. The processor I have to plug into my gigabit machine is a standard Apple dual processor with a standard apple heatsink. Does anyone know where I could buy about two inches of Apple thermal conductive tape, which appears to be the original product used in Macs?
