>>>>>[ Hey chummers! MagnaTech just shut down all it's mainframes for
"repairs." That includes the mainframe in the R&D center and the
systems in all, yes *all* of their production centers worldwide.
Magna's BBS postings claim that several of their SPU units have
suffered from hardware failure, and are shutting everything down
for maintenance checks. Now that's the biggest load of DREK I've
ever heard! I think they're just scared that someone introduced a
virus into one of their other systems while they were busy watching
their main office get blown to bits. Another bit of interesting
data, Tirandor the Dragon owns 35% of MagnaTech's stock as of last
week, right after the bombing. How he managed to buy up that much
stock without calling attention to himself until now is beyond me.
I guess I should have paid attention to that 20th century futurist
novel entitled "never deal with a Dragon." ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Someone asked me about MagnaTech again. (I thought that was over
with)
I don't know who hired Tommy Harada to sneak abourd the Intrepid. I don't even
know who he was working for at the time. Everything about that VatJob screams
Yakuza, but I haven't been able to find a definite connection. I do know that
MagnaTech hired him, or at least thought they hired him shortly after he broke
out of jail. The fact that he tried to kill the MagnaTech representatives
back on friday the 13th leads me to belive that he was working for someone
else, maybe the Yakuza, maybe The Dragon, maybe even Joseph Yoshida (though I
seriously doubt that) ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ One thing you can count on about Harada, THE FRAGGERS STILL ALIVE.
You can bet a million nuyen that there's still more to this MagnaTech mess.
The whole takeover buisness has just diverted attention away from the REAL
mystery about MagnaTech. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Yeah, we never did figure out exactly why Tirandor was so interested
in
the tunnels under the MagnaTech building before it blew up. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ I'm glad you two are still interested in Harada and MagnaTech, I
think I
may have found a job for a small group of people who share this interest.
