No, but that hasn't stopped a few of us pestering Tom Dowd about it
when he's on rec.games.frp.cyber . I'll always be a big kid, it's just
how you handle it.

Ancient cultures believed that names held great power, personal
names more so and they were guarded very closely. To protect themselves,
they answered to another name, because if another discovered their real
name, it could be used against them.
History repeats itself.

At GenCon '95, right when Tom Dowd was moving over to FASA Interactive, he
said that they would be trying to get a Shadowrun PC game out by late '97.
I don't know if that's still true, but at least the thought has crossed
they're minds.
