Just so you know, I really enjoyed the bioware ideas. I play the RPG
once in a while and I love bioware just as much as cyberware. By the
way, the book is called Shadowtech where all that neat stuff is found.
I sure hope that FASA does add bioware and some rules in one of the
expansions. I want to see the card version of Shadowrun become just as
rich as the RPG version. There is so much material to base new cards
off of that it will be a long time before FASA could run out.

anyways, back to lurker mode myself.
