Deckers don't need alot of cyberware. A data jack is the only necessary
thing. A math spu would be nice, along with some headware memory, but not
required. Heck, the datajack is not technically required, although that
would make for a somewhat slow decker.
A basic combat decker/mage can be made with boosted reflexes 1, smartlink,
and a datajack. With alphaware, which is not too extraordinary, that is
only .96 essence. This leaves 5 for magic.....
Of course, it's the skill areas that you start hurting for points.
Computer, computer b/r, conjuring, sorcery...... How many skill points do
you have left...;)
