First and foremost, EVERY.ONE. who owns a laptop/notebook/netbook neeeeeds one of these (like, should be a mandatory purchase):
This little baby plugs into your laptop via USB and keeps both your laptop AND your lap cool - no more contact burns! As well, the lovely little rubber "feet" you see in the corners prevent your laptop from sliding around. I was extremely resistant to the notion that I needed one of these, but Chebbar insisted (he was tired of seeing me try to balance my laptop on a stack of magazines in my lap). It took some getting used to, and it can actually be a tad drafty on the lap in the winter, but I love it and have recommended it numerous times (and will continue to do so). Future Shop's regular price is $45.99, but we got mine on sale for $29.99.
Chebbar has a wired headset that works... well, when it feels like it: it's temperamental, kind of like yours truly. Because he has an aversion to all things wired, he's been eying this puppy for a while. I hope he does pick up a new one soon, because I don't think I've ever laughed as hard as I did the day I listened to him mess with some guy online about going to play the Barbie game instead.
This has, like, extra buttons. Or something. Fancy-pants "gaming" lasers. Oh! And weights. Because wimpy, underdeveloped mice will never do. LOL (Seriously, though: major droolage over this from my resident PC-gamer - the only negative he could see was that it's wired.)
Rechargeable batteries I can charge IN MY CAR?!? Dude! I'd probably lose batteries under the seats and stuff, but this seems like a great idea. We go through AA batteries like they're going out of style.
