Wow... It seems like every other day is something..
A few weeks ago I talk my wife into letting me spend a few hundred in getting new artwork for my gauntlet cabinet - GREAT! -
Then my cabinet which was in my garage for a week so I could repaint parts of it... And the garage flooded... damaging the bottom... BAD - Not sure if I can ever make it look as new anymore... sigh... Worth putting a few hundred in on artwork when the bottom of one side is damaged? I guess I will find out.
Then I get my frontend feature complete. Move it over to my arcade cabinet.. Works great.. Just ready for installer and create some skins. - GREAT been working for a year on it.
Then... I get home last night and it looked like BOTH my harddrives where dead - BAD BAD
Then.. I get one of the two working again... I HAVE the source - GREAT! I was really going to cry if I lost it all
Then.. I cant find my driver disks for my computer... So I couldn't download network drivers to connect to the network to download the drivers.. - BAD
Then.. I find them after going through EVER CD I own. GREAT. back online.
All this with the same week as some crappy EBay stuff (won a bid... paid for it... and today find the same auction back up... )
Sigh...

wow your luck is just as bad as mine......

At least you have your source - I tend to email my source to myself (web-based mail), and leave it on a work PC just in case. I know how bad it is to lose code like that, seems like it takes a lifetime to re-write it...
Your luck will change, I'm sure :)
