The whole skillwires thing is a bit confusing for me. What kind do I need to get if I want to use Rating 6 Activesofts? For example, I want to be able to slot Biotech 6. What kind of skillwires do I need? Also, can I store the information in memory, freeing up the chipjack for another skill, or at least not needing the chip while it's in memory?
