The polishing grains allow for exceptional thermal efficiency and excellent particle cohesion even on the hottest of CPUs. Ramp up the RPMs on your case exhaust fan and you also get the fresh scent of mint throughout your work area. The radius the mint smell is able to permeate and be detected by human olfactory senses also corresponds very accurately with the range of a wireless access point... amazing!
LOL!

Customer: Whats wrong with the servers I have?
Me: Well, you dont have *any* servers just now.
Customer: WTF! I thought I did!

I've just installed a new Intel CPU - E6600 off the top of my head - that had the pads on out of the box, now it hosts a nice blob of Artic Silver.


It's the journey that matters, not the destination.

Aims:
70-271: Dec 2007 PASSED!
70-272: March 2008 PASSED!
ITIL v3 Foundation: June 2008 PASSED! in July
Net+: July 2008
70-270: Nov 2008
