Thanks for the quick replies! I think i did it right; i was careful to 
spread the thermal paste evenly, so it should be covering the entire 
CPU / heat sink interface. I did not put very much paste on, but i did 
notice that a very tiny bead of it leaked out around the edges when i 
clamped the heat sink down. I guess the next test will be to see how 
hot the CPU gets under full load.
