MP3•Thuis aflevering

In this episode, we show how taking risks can pay off when it comes to getting tech for cheap! We talk a little more about the iPad as a laptop replacement, offer some thoughts on the Epic vs Apple lawsuit, and perhaps most importantly, get an update on Pete's dog-chewed Apple pencil.
We also rant a little about UPS and poor courier service and FINALLY announce the winner of our Chromebook competition.
