Is it possible to have a computer installed into one's brain if it was bought with enough Miniaturization and as an A.I. (to give it commands or orders). Or maybe into one's arm with tiny keys. Rules say that light or no bulk can easily be worn on the wrist or such but I have a player who wants his android to have one in his head or as part of his body. He is a mechanic with an Exocortex but also wants some added computer goodies.
Thoughts?
Theres the datajack, that allows you to interface with other computers. But not sure if that's what you're wanting.

Know about the Datajack (thank you) but he wants to be like a Deathlok. You know, being able to talk to himself (literally) and access data modules without having to carry a piece of wearable equipment.

It's possible, but complicated.
A) "Your custom rig can be configured to take up an upgrade slot on your armor"
B) "In addition, you can use your custom rig as a Mk I comm unit (see Equipment)."
C) "You can upgrade a personal comm unit to function as some other devices (such as full computers and scanners) by spending credits equal to 110% of the additional device’s price."
D) "Androids have a single armor upgrade slot in their bodies. Regardless of whether androids are wearing physical armor, they can use this slot to install any one armor upgrade that could be installed into light armor."
So basically, you can install your custom rig into your body armor slot, and then upgrade it to be a computer, and interface with it directly.

This is hawt!
Custom Rig
"can be installed as a cybernetic augmentation system in your brain (though it can be combined with a datajack for the same price as installing a datajack normally"
At level 7 it becomes a computer and you can computer modules to it.

How did I miss that? Brianiac 5000 here we come....
Could this be don't for a character that doesn't have the custom rig? How would one go about it?
By RAW, nothing in your head, but:
"Computers with light bulk or negligible bulk can be
worn easily on the wrist or clipped to communications devices
and used without having to hold them in a hand"
You could wear it if you miniaturize it down to tier 0.
Personally, I wouldnt have a problem putting one in a datajack if you get it down to tier -1.
