And if they used Apple Pay they may have well paid twice. Anyway, it's not the first time an iFan paid over the odds for yesterday's technology!

I think Steves a great guy, the other one less so


Kind of wish I'd done computer studies myself instead of other science back in 1981/2 . Just remember peering round the corner into the computer lab at Tech college and thinking 'what a bunch a needs ' even then.
