Title: Cyberdeck size and cyberlimbs and their costs
Post by: Rooks on <06-10-14/0217:53>

So looking at the book a cyberdecl implanted in a cyberlimb is capacity 4 so that means you can can a cyberdeck implanted in your foot or your hand? now I dunno about you but most tablets can the the size of a foot but not really the size of a hand, thats more commlink territory

second question if a cyberlimb is alphaware and I want a commlink inside it does the commlink or the cost of installing it have to pay the alphaware premium as well like it does for cybereyes/ears?

Yes, you can get a cyberdeck implanted in any cyberlimb that has available capacity.

Yes, but you only pay the alphaware premium on the additional implantation cost, not on the deck itself.

I believe only the 2k (for commlinks) or 5k for decks are affected by the grades of the warez. Otherwise you could take a second hand hand (ha) and get a crazy discpunt on a deck.

what Namikaze said.

That would be more relevant if you were simply trying to hammer the whole cyberdeck into a slot in your hand. I'd assume internal cyberdecks (and commlinks) strip a lot of the unnecessary components to save space.

Hey! Remember that tablets require hardware solutions for interface, and while implanted 'in hand' you would have DNI, that would reduce the interface to level of a some wires. Think how big tablet is, without screen, oh and without casing, and when you can put it in layers rather than one layer under the screen,...

But still, I wonder if you can insert Headware in your hand?

Yes  ,but thats the only exception. You can put Eye Cyberware in Cybereyes ,Earware in Cyberears and Headware in Cyberlimbs (including the Cyberskull)
