Try Alexan but they don't usually have stock. What do you intend to use to seal the pits in the L1? I want to unlock my cpu too kaya lang the L1 looks so small that I don't think I can do it with my butterfingers and poor eyesight.

i'm going to use thick silicone grease, as recommended by a few sites (forgot the URL). It's the stuff included in highspeedPC's athlon XP unlock kit.

I unlocked my Duron using the old pencil trick. Although using a conductive paint pen will be more efficient, I wouldn't do anything THAT permanent to my processor. Besides, if I make a mistake with my pencil, then all I need to do is erase and start over. If you make the slightest mistake with the conductive paint. Goodbye Athlon!

Pencil-trick would no longer work with AthlonXP. :D
