Anybody want to explain to me the abudance of Decker/Mages? How the heck
could a Decker/Mage possibly exist? Ever read pps 52-53 of Virtual
Realities?

"Active magicians who wish to interface with teh Matrix have a special
problem. A magician's experience and training has molded his mind to think
in a specific manner, a manner radically different than what the Matrix
demands.
.....
There are two ways to handle this, and the GM may choose the method he
prefers.
The first way gives magicians who deck into the Matrix an increase
intheir Matrix-related target numbers equal to their Magic Attribute.
.....
The alternative is that the modifier be equal to the character's
Sorcery Skill Rating.
....."


Sooooo, if I thought that Tailhook's Computer Rating was bad, I'd hate to
see the Computer Rating of a successful Decker/Mage.

Thoughts, opinions, flames?
