In SR5 they have rules for implanted decks and implanted commlinks but I was wondering if they have in previous editions had rules for implanted RCCs. The issue I see being that RCCs are described being the size of a briefcase to which I ask - why? Cyberdecks are the size of a book and overall more capable. I know RCCs do some things decks can't but the size difference seems a little bit extreme. Maybe that's why decks are so much more expensive.

I do hope implanted RCCs return in the Rigger book. Or at the very least an option to put one into a cyberlimb.

At least cyberdecks have a flat Essence/Capacity cost for implantation now. In SR3 they scaled up, with the top end model costing over 1 Essence to implant.

When the concealability is the same as a cyberdeck, then I'd say the added cost of an implanted cyberdeck instead of a commlink (commlinks are at -4, so should be considered noticeably smaller). Only a ¥3,000 & 0.2 Essence difference.
