Can anyone come up with a decent explination as to why you can have
both Rigger Wires and Boosted Reflexs installed except for the case
of a balenced game ?

If I read and understand the rules correctly (plus a little added
intuition) the boosted relfexs are a sieries of small modules that
are connected all over the body. Each of these modules generate a
chemical similar to the drug booster which enhanced the characters
current neural network. (Hence the reason why they cannot be removed
as the character is addicted to the drug, and they can't be upgraded
as the drug is effectively tailormade). Apart from the fact the the
rigger wires don't need to be attached to the rest of the body just
the brain, howcome can't they be put into a character with boosted
(obviously no reflex bonus from boosted). You can a data jack, and
someother real hairy stuff but not rigger and enhanced reflexs (metal
version)
