I think computer software would be an easy one to get as they really aren't giving up anything.  Things like Altium circuit designer for PCB design, Adobe products and such.
Donations of stuff should generally be posted on the discussion group before being donated. A Station Champion or someone else willing to do-ocracy cool projects with the stuff should respond before things get left in the lab. Anything that would take up more than 2 square feet would require a proposal.
