I received my new Darter Pro (darp6) yesterday as my new ‘work’ laptop.

My upgrades were the cpu, memory and the drive:

1?? 4.9 GHz i7-10510U (1.8 up to 4.9 GHz – 8MB Cache – 4 Cores – 8 Threads) $199.00
1?? 64 GB Dual Channel DDR4 at 2666 MHz (2x32GB) $499.00
500 GB NVMe Seq Read: 3,500 MB/s, Seq Write: 3,200 MB/s $145.00

My only complaint was the time from order to ship – which was ~15 days.

Overall I love this thing – no complaints. Please check out the video below to watch!
