 http://www.gfi.com/blog/27-useful-gadgets-for-sysadmins/ What's your favortie? I would always carry an additional usb battery pack.

 Good list! I'd add a really good quality set of screwdrivers, focusing on the smaller / oddball sizes. Nothing worse than being unable to open something. As well, a good flashlight and a telescoping magnet on a stick.

 Pretty random list. Not bad stuff, although I wonder why they list System Admins, not a list that pertains to them very much. More like desktop or datacenter techs.

 Or more likely Field Techs.

 Cattle prod? You must have some unruly end users. They reach new levels daily....

 Yes, I should have added a bucket-o-slap and ban hammer of destiny but I figured they were a given

 Not sure I've used any of that in the past year... except maybe the pen, and even that was briefly. Could use a better Keyboard, that's true. Microsoft Sculpt keyboard looks cool, but I don't like the detached number pad.
