The Mac & Forth Show 264 - Expensive At Half The Price

As the festive period rolls around for this rather unfortunate year Alan, Dean, Steve and Karl list their ideas for possible gifts to share with friends and loved ones. Apple did have one more surprise for us in the form of their AirPods Max, but they don’t come cheap. As you may pile on the pounds in the coming weeks looks like Apple Fitness+ is going to arrive just in time to fight that post-celebration flab. All this and loads more on this weeks episode.
