Yup, that's right, but they are 24 pin. Type this in on ebay:
5pcs x 24Pin IC Socket (Machine tool) ROHS Best Quality
There's a listing there right now and it ends up about $5 for 5 sockets and it's in Vancouver, so you won't wait 8 weeks for delivery from China.
I've seen some guys cut the legs off, but if you get a small little nail punch (and a pretty little flower covered hammer
) you can just punch them out easy enough.
