Okay, I understand the crunchy bits. I know what cyberware and bioware will make me kill things dead and what skills I need to make my character useful.

But what about setting stuff? How hard is it to get around if I don't have a SIN? Or a fake SIN? Can I still buy gas for my car without purchasing a fake SIN? Do I even need a car? What about comm links?

I know what they all do, but what do I need to survive in the day to day world? Can I still buy a bag of Frito-Soy BBQ Chips without a wireless comm link? Will the store still accept a normal cred stick or cash? I know how to use my negotiation skill to buy Titanium bone lacing but I don't understand all about the wireless commerce, etc.
