Think of all the calories we engineers would burn!

Too late, in my opinion.

Gelid is trying to intice with potential buyers by offering more product that its competitors.  However, I doubt that this paste is any different than most competitors in its class.

Arctic Silver 5 has been around for so long that I doubt many veteran OCers would switch to a new brand.  Heck, I have a 3 1/2 year old tube of AS 5 paste that's still at least half full. 

I would have to read more reviews (MaxPC article?) that compares the various popular compounds and their thermal tests before considering making a switch to another brand.  If Maximum PC does an article, it would be nice to see the temperature readings for a proc/fan combo that still uses a thermal pad and then move up the thermal compound (quality) ladder from there.  I think the temperature difference would be small--perhaps 1-3 degrees difference.

By the picture, this guy's either doing a Rodney Dangerfield impression...or he's throwing some serious air quotes.
