Issue #261 - Wiz

Hello there!

This week we released a new version of Raspbian, complete with a setup wizard to help you get started with your Pi!

We also had fun playing with hot glue, trying out Android on a Raspberry Pi, and chatting to Tim Peake.

We look forward to seeing many of you this weekend at Raspberry Fields, our two-day digital making festival in Cambridge. If you can’t make it, keep an eye on our social channels — we’ll be updating you all weekend, and we’re recording our main-stage talks for YouTube. Follow along using #RaspberryFields on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook!

Have a great week, and we’ll see you next Friday.

Peace,

Alex
