Plus, DOOM gets a 30th-anniversary upgrade, and you can use Raspberry Pi to play it on the SNES

Raspberry Pi Weekly

Howdy,

We love you so much that we thought we'd give you a little treat — a free chapter to read from Raspberry Pi Press' brand-new book, The Computers that Made the World. It's all about Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine. The rest of the book, by Tim Danton, chronicles how computers reshaped World War II through the origins of 12 influential machines built between 1939 and 1950.

We also learnt a cool trick that lets you play the 30th-anniversary edition of DOOM on the SNES, saw some stratospheric photos #ShotOnRaspberryPi, and met a friendly retro robot who starred in one of the loveliest build videos we've ever seen.

Peace,

Ashley
