Good, cheap toolkit?

[DPK]

I am looking to buy a decent PC toolkit. What can someone recommend?

magnetic screwdriver with inter-changeable bits

Thats all you really need.....maybe a pair of needle-nose pliers

Magnetic might not be the best for working on PCs.

It's fine. I've never had a problem and there are many other people on this board that have verified that they have never had a problem as well.

Oh, I agree. I use one on my PC, too.

I just wouldn't want to chance it if I was working on other people's computers, in case I slip and somehow fry something.

a "PC toolkit" is a phillips screwdriver.

I use my leatherman or my gerber tool.

Pretty much the only things I use on my PC are a mid sized phillips screwdriver, a small straight edge (if you install/uninstall CPUs), and a scalpel (for spreading AS3).

Whatever you get make sure it has a DMM in it.
