“The 12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaway: Day 42 – An Epson Workforce 610 All-in-One Printer
This contest is closed. Congrats to faithful Macenstein reader Chad.
On the Forty-Second Day After Christmas, Macenstein gave to you (or, more accurately, gave you a chance to win…) An Epson Workforce 610 All-in-One Printer !
I’m actually reviewing one of these at the moment, and let me tell you, this thing is pretty damn impressive. It prints, scans, copies, faxes… hell, it even prints out graph paper! And it’s wicked fast too, which is great for when you really need some graph paper fast!
