Something dark was forming at the core of the Chinese program. The density of information overwhelmed the fabric of the matrix... It took a dozen quick, peripheral takes before he had it, a shark thing, gleaming like obsidian, the black mirrors of its flanks reflecting faint distant lights that bore no relation ship to the matrix around it. `That's the sting,' the construct said. `When Kuang's good and bellytight with the Tessier-Ashpool core, we're ridin' that through...' `Well, you got time to kill, kid,' the flatline

And now we'll take a shot at doing it in reality, just forty years later.
