Ah yes, this would be the grey ovoid thumb-drive on a lanyard that we got out of the box on my desk. It now occurs to me that it lives in the box because Sable (resident desk-cat) will not be convinced it's not a mouse (rodent) and thus diligently attempts to kill it whenever she catches sight of it. Not overly conducive to the writing process, I find.
Sable is of course, the cat who did deliberately and with malice aforethought once kill a computer mouse.
But hey, at least now that you're back home, you won't be tempted to instinctive and incautious grabbing of Buzz (resident hunting cat) as he attempts to dive under the dining table and eat a mouse (rodent) there.
