Couple thoughts struck me while reading it:

Did you hear about the company making a physics chip for video games? clicky

I would think the "secondarys" would be specialized. Eg one for data storage, one for modeling and stats calcuations, and maybe one for physics. ;)

The second thing is, you've given the main character these great abilities, but we don't get to see them in action. I assume that will show up in later chapters tho.

There may be other stories in this universe and with these characters,
but I don't have to work out a novel length, so I'm just working short
stories for now. The world building I'm doing has three periods for
doing stories - pre-singularity, at the singularity, and long, long
post-singularity. A Vernor Vinge or Charles Stross type approach.

This story (obviously) is pre-singularity, and is in the early days of
the trans-human movements. Next one will probably be same characters,
but with their augs intact - that'll be fun to write if I can come up
with an idea. I'll definitely use the physics chip idea - thanks.
