Almost correct. Deltaware is built for one person only, and when you rip it out of his smouldering corpse. To you it counts as Beta. Beta, Alpha and high street cyberware by rules fits everyone equally. An Analagy i once heard. High Street cyber is like a computer thats been slapped together, hey it works (most of the time) but the software drivers don't like each other of the OS is glitchy (XP :wobble: ) Alpha, well someone actually put some thought into building this one. Systems work fine, and it's not going to need an upgrade when the next Unreal Tournment comes out. Beta. You brought the parts separate, was built by someone that knows what they are doing, the OS is steamed down to just what your needing and the Processor and RAM are well above what any stand alone would need, heck, it's better then most servers. Delta, you running with hardware that won't be on the consumer marking for over 10 years, and the software is completely custom. |

I figured I might be off by a little bit. As I said, I ignore it and do my own thing anyway. :)

Actually Betaware makes a lot of sense outside the military stuff. At least if you do not want to play the n+1 "my body is pure" elven shaman but a human hermetic with some cyber like eyes, ears or skillwire. Giving up 2 points of magic for Betaware makes for an interesting char. |

t-he
Just to be clear, delta-ware was introduced in the Street Samurai Guide (2050) while Cybertechnology expanded it. |

A little of topic but I have instigated a house rule that drastically reduces cyberlimbs and their enhancement costs. Even at half the cost for the limb and the enhancements above 10k thats still eleven ford americars for my sam's arm. I rather give my players less cred and lower the cost than give them more cred to compensate for equipment. They will stay in low lifestyles and like it :D
