I'll have to go with Vorlin on this one, haven't you ever heard of certain an amazing overlooked technology? Here's a hint, it's a technology involving a cellulose-based thin-film media which is usually read-only, and it is optically scanned in order to extract the data. It requires no power, is EXTREMELY backwards-compatible, and requires no special hardware.

We call them books.

The trojan-class variety of remote administration tools... I remember first messing with them. It felt undeniably cheap, somehow. Anyway, I doubt any of them really teach people anything except how to feel "l33t" compared to their less-technical friends. Or did this version of Subseven have some humungous help file? You don't need to resort to a level of cyber-pickpocketry in order to learn about the environment.
