Hi everyone, I just want to post a quick update about what is going on and issues that will affect my ability to upload videos over the next month. My computer has had a complete failure. At a minimum, the SATA controllers on the motherboard have failed, I am typing this from a backup computer. It's the latest in a number of failures that computer had leading up to this.

I have ordered a replacement computer, an Acer Predator AG3-605-UR2E gaming computer, but it won't be here for a month. Apparently it's a new model, it isn't quite built yet. I have one more SE III video to upload and then there might not be much else happening for the next 15 days to a month. This computer cannot run KSP at anything better than a maddening molasses speed, and I am sure can't run SE III either. I may be able to upload videos on some "retro" games like Battlefield 1942 or KSP 0.09.

As far as my video series status goes, the next SE III video (already recorded) is the last in that series. I may however and much want to record some coop campaign play, I was playing my first coop game with a friend when my computer had its ultimate failure and would much like to record a future coop game.

For KSP, I had managed to recreate most of the props needed for my KSP/RP series, lacking the finishing touches on the new main ship and the launching of a mission-specific prop. Once I get the new box, I will be able to get the KSP/RP series back up and running soon after.
