Web Host continued...
Everything is in transition right now between domain registrars and hosts so bear with me if any links fail in the next twenty-four hours.  I haven't gotten the mail setup correctly yet so any response might take a bit longer during this time.  Thanks for bearing with me.

Web Host continued
I have signed up with PowWeb as my new host.  Hopefully within the next five days the domain should be transferred from IPowerWeb to my new domain registrar, and the site will then be on PowWeb's servers.  I'll keep you posted as to how I like the new host.  They give me 9 times as much storage space and 10 times the bandwidth.  We'll see how their uptime is.

Web Host issues
My (current) webhost, IPowerWeb, had problems with the server my site was on the last several days so much of that time ArcadeCab was not available.  It started with some sporadic issues last Thursday and escalated into a major problem by Saturday (early) morning of not being able to connect to the site at all. Each reply (phone or email) was met with "give it another hour."   As a result of these difficulties, I will be moving the site to a new host very soon. 
I hope no one thought the site had just evaporated.

Alex is doing great and her parents, while a little low on sleep, are having a ball with her.  I'll link some additional pictures here soon.

She has arrived!
Alexandra Renee finally arrived today at 7:14am.  She is 7lbs 7oz, 20-1/2 inches long, and is healthy and active.  Mom is doing well after her middle of the night labor.  I cannot express how excited we are with this new addition to the family and I am already looking forward to teaching her to play on the cabinet.

Still waiting
We were due on the 9th but the little one is being shy about coming into the world.  Hopefully very soon.

Not wanting to let the entire weekend slip away from me, I installed Mame v.96 on the cabinet as another option for the Mamewah frontend.  I only intend to add the new games that are of interest to me on it, and play the rest on my older (and far faster) version .62.  Most of the newer games hold little interest for me, but the Golden Tees do.  I added on GT2k, GT99, GT Classic and GT 3D, as well as the newest release of World Class Bowling (addicting game).  In case you are interested, I grabbed the games from here.

Store- Inventory is now gone
Thank you to everyone who placed an order recently and helped eliminate the remaining Ultra-trackball stock .  I appreciate it and hope you enjoy your purchases.  It is my intention to get back into the shop by the start of the year, more than likely beginning to take pre-orders sometime early December.  I'll provide more details as that time nears.  The new addition is due in three days and she will be getting my full attention.  Thank you again for your support.
