I bought a couple of these little guys and have been suitably impressed for something about the size of a sharpie they are pretty handy. You certainly cant torque them much but they're perfect for most computer screws. I like a #1 Phillips head for a PC more than a larger #2. The smaller point is a great size for remotes and other smallish screws that tend to hold battery covers on. The bits are magnetic.
Any standard #2 screwdriver will work fine. Even a slightly smaller one will probably work. I'd recommend you DON'T use a magnetic one just for the sake of not touching your hardware accidentally with anything that's magnetized.
I think it's about a #2 that I'd suggest using. Kind of hard to tell; most don't have it marked.
It's not a major issue; you don't need lots of torque (in fact, you need to not have lots of torque), and philips tends to work well even with the wrong size.

I don't think there's any issue with magnetic stuff in your computer, except in the HDD (and even then, only if you take off the cover... don't).
Magnetic also means you're less likely to drop a screw and have it fall into the PSU grill - BAD. Even if the power is off there's still caps charged in there.
Depending on the screw, a #1 or #2. The majority of screws used in pc's are so soft that too much torque will strip them or deform the head. #3 and up are far too large. Not to say you can't use magnetic and walk away without damage but I prefer not to use magnetic tools in my pc. There are a lot of small components around a motherboard it's just easier not to risk it.
