Welcome

HELLO and welcome to the Drag 'N Drop website, home of the PDF magazine for RISC OS 5 computer users - which means Raspberry Pi, Armini and Beagleboard machines.

Drag 'N Drop costs just £3.00 per issue and it comes out every three months. You pay for one issue and you can download it as a PDF, straightaway. You can do it all on RISC OS with Netsurf (other browsers on other platforms will probably work). There are no subscription fees. We regularly feature articles on programming in Basic and machine code, reviews of products, games, tutorials on using applications, and also occasionally articles for the 8-bit BBC Micro and Electron.

Please note that at the moment payment for Drag N Drop is by Paypal but we have set up a bank account and are in the process of updating the website so you can also pay by cheque or internet banking.

We're looking for people to write articles for future editions of the magazine. Have written a program for your computer? Do you have any hints and tips to share on using applications? Perhaps a gadget which you've found works with RISC OS - or just a short story about what you use your RISC OS computer for. We want to hear from you! The address to email is:
