last year 155 billion dollars worth of

computer chips were sold worldwide

and the demand is only growing one of

the world's most lucrative black markets

today

is stolen chips central processing units

memory modules

what you're holding right there is worth

six hundred dollars

in silicon valley computer companies are

losing over one million dollars a week

for rounds top-of-the-line computer

chips are more valuable than gold

and they're a hell of a lot safer to

sell than cocaine

a whole new breed of crime old dog new

tricks oh it's even better

most chips don't have serial numbers so

they can't be traced

bandits raid electronics corporations

universities

law firms they steal the chips right out

of their workstations

they hit manufacturing plants and

warehouses

computex and assembly plant the value of

this morning's heist is probably worth 6

million bucks

and 1w13 let it get away

but they did bring in the antichrist

so what do we have on our suspects

nothing captain

satan doesn't talk until he sees his

lawyer well real name's troy enger

grew up in san jose in and out of juvie

graduated to county

works at a small computer firm in the

valley called the new and used computer

store

and new and used is owned by a gentleman

called ray bernard

who's bernard well ingram bernard did

some time in san jose county jail

together back in 1983.

four drumroll please robbery

why don't you two head over to new and

news and check out bernard

um captain you know bernard's been

around and um i think if we go down

asking him questions it might spook him

off and if he is involved he's bound to

be sporting a solid alibi

yeah captain i mean we were thinking of

approaching this from a slightly

different angle

what are you two getting at we go

undercover

plant a seed see what sprouts chase you

wouldn't know the difference between a

computer chip and a potato chip

you know what your problem is richardson

the future is here well i know that but

when you think about it

what do they really make you do sit in

the same spot all day long and stare at

no they make us think maybe they make us

think too much i mean computers are the

next step in the evolution of machines

but they're also the next step in the

de-evolution of the human spirit

in the future they're just going to hook

our brains up to a hard drive with a

scuzzy cable attached to the back of our

skulls and instantly

we'll know everything there is to know

about reduced instruction set computing

bios dram sram but our friends and our

families

they'll be total strangers to us
