My excitement is palpable today. I woke to find an email confirming that DPD will be delivering a new laptop this afternoon.
New laptops are not a novel thing, for many they are commodity items.
What makes this one special and exciting for me is that it is one I "ordered" back in September '25 when I backed #Argon40, along with 978 others, to manufacture and deliver their Argon ONE UP on Kickstarter.
The laptop is built around a RaspberryPi Compute Module 5, 8GB RAM and a 256GB NVME drive.

Well the laptop has arrived, nicely boxed and in one piece. At the moment she's resting in the corner warming up before first use. According to SWMBO I'm grinning like the proverbial Cheshire cat. #ArgonForty #RaspberryPi
