Best thing to gift for less than Rs 500!

[ajayritik]

I'm planning to gift a friend on his birthday something which is worth Rs 500 or less. Earlier I was thinking about gifting him a Flash drive but a 2 GB Flash drive costs Rs 650! What are the other options? 1 GB costs around Rs 400 but I think its too small in size!

Earlier I observed that in my 2 GB Flash drive I have only 1.98 space. Most of the DVD movies with each VOB file is of 0.99 GB! Is it possible to copy this into a flash drive? I know he will be mostly use this to copy movies and most of them maybe DVD movies and each file will be around 1 GB.

yes he might like it. specially if he already has a PD, because a hand full of pendrives are dead useful to anybody.

Idea: how about giving him a bootable pendrive with a distro running in it? you could customise that distro with all things he likes, make user name too his, and give him a personalised feel?

I would love that as a birthday gift. an os in your pocket.

Thanks for the response Metalhead! What do you mean by PD? What do you mean by bootable pendrive with a distro running in it? Can you give me more details?

PD stands for pen drives i presume.

A pendrive can be made bootable, the pc should also support booting from a USB flash drive.

The pendrive can be configured to run a linux distro.

Pretty nifty idea @gautham

2)Get a wrist watch.
