Stealth Switch
What it is: A desktop cloaking device that instantly and completely hides applications with a press of a footswitch.
Why we love it: This ingenious device lets you hide "sensitive" programs (maybe a game of Solitaire or Minesweeper?) that you don't want others (like your Boss) to see. A quick tap of your foot, and any windows you haven't specified as "safe" disappear from view. The Stealth Switch can also mute the sound, hide the taskbar, hide the desktop icons, and password protect the restore function. Another tap when the coast is clear and your programs are back just the way they were.
Who we'd give it to: A Co-Worker, Secret Agent Man or Conspiracy Buff.
Where to get it: From thinkgeek.com for a sneaky $24.99.
