Just curious, is it a DVD-R or a pressed DVD?
Raspberry Pi Staff Simon Long
It’s pressed – or at least my copy looks like it is.
Chaddy
Congratulations Eben on your well deserved CBE.
From a small idea and a simple dream that has exploded into tremendous innovations and now changing the world.
Eric Olson
Does the Pixel DVD include Minecraft, Sonic Pi, Scratch or Mathematica?
Matt
No unfortunately not due to licencing.
Tom Fryers
I think it will include Sonic Pi and Scratch but not Minecraft or Mathematica.
Peter Medus
It includes Sonic Pi and Scratch. However Minecraft and Mathematica can’t go on the image as the RPi Foundation don’t have licenses to put them on anything other than a RPi (I think so anyway, correct me if I’m wrong!)

God bless the folks at Raspberrypi for doing this I almost trash my gateway laptop. It is running great! I want to permanently install it. How I got about doing this

When does it come to US Barnes & Nobles?
Liz Upton
It’s usually about 2 weeks behind the UK (they go to the USA on an actual ship!)
Stuart C
We seem to be missing the Pi Derby code online. :(

The link in “You can grab The MagPi 53 in…” points to issue 52.
