The Wheel of (BASIC) Excuses

Back in the day, over at IEEE Spectrum magazine , the editorial elves had a sheet of paper stuck on a wall, with a spinning arm which pointed to any number of plausible excuses for not having handed in homework an article in time. The offices were renovated last year, and Stephen Cass thought that it was time to update the paper version, bringing it kicking and screaming into the 1980s with a Raspberry Pi-based BASIC system. You can’t fit many excuses on wheel drawn on a sheet of paper.

RISC OS South West show and Raspberry Jam – tomorrow

If you’re in the South West of England and you’re at a loose end tomorrow, why not drop in on the RISC OS South West show ? There’s a Raspberry Jam going on at the same time, lots of Pi stuff for sale (the RISC OS shows are a brilliant place to pick up peripherals for your Pi, and a great place to see some Pi harware projects in the flesh), and the organisers are hoping to get a chance to introduce plenty of Raspberry Pi users to RISC OS.
