I completely bombed an interview because they gave me a laptop but refused to supply a mouse. Plus the laptop touchpad scrolled in the opposite direction to what I was used to. I felt quite sorry for the interviewers who had to sit silent for ten minutes watching me try to copy a function from one file to another.

Mark and rikroots, I'm curious about how long it took for you to travel to the interview and back

Not long at all for me. In fact the company was next door to another place I had worked in the past.
