MacVoices #14228: The MacJury’s Holiday Gift Guide #4


The MacJury’s fourth holiday gift guide has a bit of a twist: the panel (except for the host, of course) are from Europe. Does that affect their picks, or are geeks the same the world over? Find out holiday gifts to give or get, from camera gear to batteries, earphones to books and more are suggested by Bart Busschots, GazMaz, Don McAllister  and host Chuck Joiner.
