MagPi magazine for Raspberry Pi owners – June issue published

The June 2015 edition of venerable publication The MagPi has just been published. Full of exciting articles and news, it is vital reading for all Pi owners. Perhaps the most exciting news is that from issue 36 (end of July), the MagPi is going to have a massive 100-page print edition.
