Re: MagPi – Raspberry Pi Magazine

I am really pleased with the final product. It appears the link to the draft of the next issue is no longer! Can someone please put it here so we can watch (and maybe contribute) to its evolution?

Re: Integration of the PI into schools

<t>I too am interested in helping bring the Raspberry Pi into primary school life in the UK, specifically my local school. I am concerned that there are no teachers qualified to introduce the subject of computer science (even if the proposed curriculum shown in links elsewhere in this forum is adopt...

Re: MagPi – Raspberry Pi Magazine

I'm glad there seems to be a gathering protest against the use of the current front page image but am concerned about the little time remaining to come up with an alternative. I have suggested by email a giant image of the device- what's wrong with that?

<t>Darren said: <br/> <br/> <br/> Not convinced about the new cover, a nice pic overall but it looks more like stuff magazine. I'm sure most men (and a few women) will appreciate seeing an attractive young model on the cover but that kind of presupposes that the readership is male. Wouldn't you agre...

Good point! You can't even get Ebay interested for about 28 days after an auction has finished re non-delivery!

Re: Advice please- O/S and application best suited to 1080p play of movie files
