And, the big question, what if you add in the benefits of the internet?
Oddly little. I mean there's a lot of stuff that you do with computers that simply isn't worth points. Graphic design? You don't pay points for having the correct tool to use a TL8 skill. Same thing with hacking into systems. It's just "having the right tool to use your skill". The internet connection is worth something
