Actually, let's be inclusive here. What are some of the best gifts in general you've received?

A Wacom Graphire tablet! This was in the early 2000’s, and my friends pooled their money to get it for me because they knew I liked to draw. I made graphics for all of my clubs and orgs and then ended up working as an illustrator through college and beyond. I used the original tablet until it broke and then moved on to the Intuos. I actually don’t draw anymore but that was definitely one of the most thoughtful and well-used gifts I’ve gotten.

I've thought about getting something like that for a friend of mine. sounds like you got a lot of use out of it.
