No big differences with the posted review, though I'd like to add a complaint...
In the business theory sections, they talk a lot about how nice it is for
runners to be paid in stocks or bearer bonds - this is good, and I tend to
agree with a lot of the listed reasons. Unfortunately, in the section on
mechanics for running a corp, they say nothing about determining values or
dividends for such investments... Presumably they'd be somehow tied to the
Net Rating and/or Financial Operations Rating, but I'm not quite sure how to
get exact numbers... (Yes, this matters; one of my PCs decided to trade in
her 8 months prepaid Luxury Lifestyle (at the 50,000 nuyen/month level) for
16,000 shares of Knight-Errant when I gave her the option to do so...)

Any ideas?
