This article lists the 10 must have items for techies and sysadmins. From cross-over adapters (as pictured above) instead of having to carry a spare cable, to wirelessly locking your pc when you walk away (and then unlocking when you come back) automatically. The description of the above device:
For years, techies have carried around a three-foot crossover cable for those rare occasions when we need one, such as diagnosing networks or transferring data from one PC to another. One of our favorite tools is the Ethernet Crossover adapter, available from ThinkGeek.com. Costing less than $6, this device will fit on your keychain; it converts any standard Ethernet cable into a crossover cable.
