Answer #1
I would ALWAYS carry atleast a 4GB Pen drive. I Personally have a 16GB Corsair voyager, which is awesome. I would also look at portable versions of Office 07, and an Antivirus program.

Sorry, that was my brothers account.
Just an add-on to that, I would also get a portable Windows/OS.
DamnSmall Linux is pretty good if you know how to use Linux. If your a Windows guy, get a portable version of WindowsXP =P
Also, no offense, but you need to Spell/Grammar check stuff if your going into ANY field of work.

Woooo 500th post =D
