Reading the MagPi makes me happy :D

Happy birthday and thanks for all the hard work!

And thanks to you guys for giving all us MagPi peeps something to write about.

Think of all the mischief we would be getting up to with all the free time we would have…

:-)

Liz I ended up having to look it up –

“Grand Viziers were always scheming megalomaniacs. It was probably in the job description: ‘Are you a devious, plotting, unreliable madman? Ah, good, then you can be my most trusted advisor.'”
— Terry Pratchett, Interesting Times
Hmmm – spot on then ;-)

Seriously, Happy Birthday to Mag Pi (& the team). Without your fantastic efforts the Raspberry Pi community would be a far less vibrant place.

Cheers – Pete

Great stuff! I’ve been using Linux on and off for years, but I’m not really fluent in it. I find much of interest and plenty of good tips in W.H.Bell’s articles in the MagPi.

Nice1 – I am looking forward to reading the new issue. Also thanks for reducing the file size, its much easier to manage!

Great job, guys! Here’s to a successful second year!

A bit disappointed with their kick starter campaign, Still waiting for my printed copies promised for Jan.
Maybe soon…..

I only just found out this existed! Loads of back-reading to do, looks great :)

Congratulations on your first year.

One of the best magazine series I’ve ever read! As long as You keep making them, I’ll keep reading them. Reading through an issue I always get an “Aha!”-feeling. Keep rereading back-issues to get snippets of goodies that I remember having read somewhere. Just keep soaring ;-)

Congrats to all the hard working team – looking forward to the first hard printed magazines being sent out soon.

Also hoping that season two or an option to subscribe will appear soon as well.

It was like a calling. I was surprised that nobody was attempting it – There were websites, but this was different. So I started a 4 page flyer, and just threw as much of the little information that was available at that time into it. You couldn’t even get a Raspberry Pi at that point. I’m truly stunned at how far the MagPi has come since then, and I’m really pleased that so many people got involved. I put a lot of effort into making the first few issues happen, and now I’ve stepped back somewhat, I enjoy reading each issue as much as the next person. I’m very proud to have been involved with it, but the MagPi would not have survived this long without the dedication of the team and the support of the community.

I would really like to support you by making a donation and purchasing from the store. The only problem is that PayPal lost me several years ago due to shabby treatment on their part, and I refuse to use their “services”.
Have you considered accepting some of the more common credit cards, such as Visa or Mastercard? (You’ve simply got to be paying double fees when someone uses a credit card AND it’s going through PayPal).

I have, just today, discovered your magazine due to my getting ready to jump enthusiastically into the Rπ pond. It looks like such great fun! I’d like to help out, if I can.
Warmest regards,

ps: I live in the States, if that makes a difference regarding my payment-option question.

Hi,
I ordered the back issues & I’m itching to read them, but they haven’t arrived yet. Does anyone know the shipping date?
TIA,
Alan B.
(Btw, and somewhat off topic – the coursera 9 week course on Python is great – I fully recommend it.

In this issue we spoke about the flexible arm to hold the camera module. It is ready and available from today :

Still waiting for my back issues. No response either to my email to the editor (29 Apr) or my request for info above (15 May). It’s now way beyond the planned delivery dates. Could someone please tell me what’s going on? I appreciate you’re all volunteers, and it’s a complicated project, but a brief update now and again would keep us subscribers waiting a bit more patiently.
