Uhm, what if the virus didn't kick in right away? Ie, only on a certain
date. The backups could've been infected too. Recovery after the crash
could have been from manual entry from hardcopies ... ick.
Hmmm... about the biofeedback, the virus may not have had true
biofeedback. What if the similarities between the computer systems and
the brain allowed the virus to attempt to infect the Echo Mirage members
which resulted in a corrupted "had drive".
s fo Echo Mirage using non-assist interfaces, IIRC, with a "hot deck"
they, at ffirst, barely manged to defeat the virus. Also, it's possible
that it was not immediately apparent why the members were dying; sort of
a "this shouldn't be happening" mental block.
