I have a character who is becoming a new decker, having already had
tons of cyber and bio installed. Here is my situation:

Computer skill: 4
Intelligence: 4

Encephalon 4
MAth SPU 4
Cerebral Booster 2

Okay, so I've figured out that my Hacking pool is:

(MPCP + 4 (base Intel)+ 2(Intel boost from Enceph) + 2 (Booster
Bonus)+2 (Math SPU))/3 + 4 (task Pool) = (MPCP+10)/3 + 4

My question is: What do I roll for my computer skill?

4? (the base)
6? (The base + 2 for Math SPU as per Shadowtech)
One of the above with the possibility of +4 for Task Pool? (yeah
right)

Really I'm just curious if the +2 applies to my skill or not. I'd
say no, since it's in the Task Pool already, but VR 2 kind of skirts
the issue, and otherwise I have a 6 Computer skill....
