Slagheap Posted February 18, 2003 Share Posted February 18, 2003 As far as I know just thin todays computers and companies only with faster more advanced products. Depending on when you are playing it's only a few years in the future.-Slag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quasar Posted February 18, 2003 Share Posted February 18, 2003 As with my game (in 2008) The computers themselves havn't changed, just are faster (terahertz) laptops (smaller) and desktops are still the beasts of burden in the home and corp world. Many people carry wireless palm pilots with opnet capability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finbar Posted February 19, 2003 Share Posted February 19, 2003 Warped Rules 101 ::hehe We take the cost (in dots) and multiply by 10 to determine "computer points", sort of a mix SI/minicomp figure. Performance costs 5 pts/pt (max rating = cost), Fail-Safe 3 pts/pt (max rating=costx2), and programs are 1 pt/. 5 pt (max rating 5). Example: A 3-dot computer could have 30 pts. Performance=3 (15), Fail-Safe=3 (9), Research 3, Intent 2, Business 3, Games 2, Math 2.If it helps...FR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mechademon Posted February 23, 2003 Author Share Posted February 23, 2003 So they are close to Trinity's version of computer but without the Agents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finbar Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 Actually, yeah...It's called a pocket-PC...It's about the size of a GBA, allows you to play games and music, you can put any info you need on it, and will help keep you organized...All it needs is a 3D Microsoft helper, and...;-)FR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
