>>I'm imagining a quarian being forced to work with a Pip-Boy. >> >>"It's no omni-tool, but it'll have to do." > >Given the hodgepodge quality of the Quarian Fleet, I believe "It's no >_____, but it'll have to do." is the unofficial motto of the Quarian >State. At least until the ringworld. I have often thought that the quarian engineering mindset would appreciate the Pip-Boy, not necessarily in and of itself - even the most basic omni-tool is obviously a superior product - but as an artifact of its time. They're good at what they're meant to do, they were advanced for their day, and they're virtually indestructible. I think the average quarian's take on it would be a little like modern aviators' attitude toward, say, the SPAD S.VII. By any modern measure, the SPAD is a terrible aircraft—slow, unreliable, comically fragile, with wretched cockpit ergonomics and practically no protection at all for its operator from the elements, let alone enemy fire. But you know, it got the job done. :) --G. -><- Benjamin D.
