SonofMacPhistoFour way conversations are fun and challenging! In my mind, I'm kind of just mashing it all together and pretending it works out how conversations should work in real life, and then responding to that.
Which usually ends up with people breaking off into smaller groups

"Whoa!" Maschil declared with genuine astonishment while looking down at his Pip-Boy 200k. "These are some nice captures. You really do get around." Maschil looked up from his data-pad to see Mathias eyeing it with aversion. "Hey, don't judge me. I know, I know, this things ancient, but like my dad always said 'why fix what isn't broken?' Right?" said Maschil defensively. 'Maybe it is time for an upgrade. They are giving out the newest data-pads for free now... No, no, no. What am I thinking? I must be getting a little tipsy. I love my Pip-Boy it's always done me solid.'
Is there any way that we can avoid shoehorning items from other sci-fi contexts? It severely weakens the RP that is assumed to take place in the Elite universe.
Perhaps any the following?
-Wrist computer (I've used that one several times myself!)
- Arm/wrist slate
- Projector
- Mini-holo
- Assistant
- InfoDisplay
- Net Link
- ArmNet

@M. Lehman in a universe of over 400 billion systems how can you be sure that there are not any of the items or creatures I mentioned that you claim to not be of the Elite universe. As a man of science I am convinced it would be naive to believe that a "Pip-Boy" would only be in one single fragment of existance, but for your satisfaction we can assume that my character has attained the capability to travel between different dimensions and therefore may make reference or mention of objects and beings that are simply unfathomable to yourself and like minded individuals.
