Since
you
have
requested
a
viewing
of
our
facilities
here
,
Mr
.
Kovacs
,
shall
we
start
?
I
have
cleared
my
agenda
for
the
next
couple
of
hours
,
but
I
do
have
clients
waiting
.
"
Something
about
Nyman
’
s
manner
brought
Warden
Sullivan
to
mind
,
but
it
was
an
altogether
smoother
,
less
embittered
Sullivan
.
I
glanced
over
Nyman
’
s
suit
and
face
.
Perhaps
if
the
Warden
had
made
his
career
in
storage
for
the
super
rich
instead
of
the
criminal
element
he
might
have
turned
out
like
this
.
"
Fine
.
"
It
got
pretty
dull
after
that
.
PsychaSec
,
like
most
d
.
h
.
f
.
depots
,
wasn
’
t
much
more
than
a
gigantic
set
of
air
-
conditioned
warehouse
shelves
.
We
tramped
through
basement
rooms
cooled
to
the
7
to
11
degrees
Celsius
recommended
by
the
makers
of
altered
carbon
,
peered
at
racks
of
the
big
thirty
-
centimetre
expanded
format
discs
and
admired
the
retrieval
robots
that
ran
on
wide
-
gauge
rails
along
the
storage
walls
.
"
It
’
s
a
duplex
system
,
"
said
Nyman
proudly
.
"
Every
client
is
stored
on
two
separate
discs
in
different
parts
of
the
building
.
Random
code
distribution
,
only
the
central
processor
can
find
them
both
and
there
’
s
a
lock
on
the
system
to
prevent
simultaneous
access
to
both
copies
.
To
do
any
real
damage
,
you
’
d
have
to
break
in
and
get
past
all
the
security
systems
twice
.
"
I
made
polite
noises
.
"
Our
satellite
uplink
operates
through
a
network
of
no
less
than
eighteen
secure
clearing
orbital
platforms
,
leased
in
random
sequence
.
"
Nyman
was
getting
carried
away
with
his
own
sales
pitch
.
He
seemed
to
have
forgotten
that
neither
Prescott
nor
myself
were
in
the
market
for
PsychaSec
’
s
services
.
"
No
orbital
is
leased
for
more
than
twenty
seconds
at
a
time
.
Remote
storage
updates
come
in
via
needlecast
,
with
no
way
to
predict
the
transmission
route
.
"
Strictly
speaking
,
that
wasn
’
t
true
.
Given
an
artificial
intelligence
of
sufficient
size
and
inclination
,
you
’
d
get
it
right
sooner
or
later
,
but
this
was
clutching
at
straws
.
The
kind
of
enemies
who
used
AIs
to
get
at
you
didn
’
t
need
to
finish
you
off
with
a
particle
blaster
to
the
head
.
I
was
looking
in
the
wrong
place
.
"
Can
I
get
access
to
Bancroft
’
s
clones
?
"
I
asked
Prescott
abruptly
.
"
From
a
legal
point
of
view
?
"
Prescott
shrugged
.
"
Mr
.
Bancroft
’
s
instructions
give
you
carte
blanche
as
far
as
I
know
.
"
