I've been searching through geek tshirt shops for the last 45 mins looking for a present for one of my mates but haven't seen anything inspiring so I thought I would ask you cats.

I'm looking for stuff that can be easily obtained in the UK and I don't have a lot of cash.

Any suggestions?

A nice flash drive would do,plus a distro of some sort.

Penguin stickers, small enough to put onto the windows-logo key.

It depends on the needs, but for me:

* RAM (PC4200, for those of you who might know me)
* Flash Drive (No U3, please...)
* Anything with Penguins on it, extra points for Tux

If he/she is a reader:

And This is a different kind of a gift for a techie. I got an Ogio (http://www.ogio.com/products.php?category=41) bag last year and it goes practically everywhere I go. It perfectly holds my laptop, with port replicator, a mouse, power supply, and my mp3 player with a port for the earphones, and there is room for tons more. I got a black Metro, which is a backpack style, but their are several more. It is by far the best case/laptop bag/backpack I've ever owned.
