There is an even bigger plothole that seems to have been overlooked in
T3. By making the Skynet just a large self-aware program that is
spread through the 'net on thousands/millions of computers etc... and
getting rid of the original premise that it has a "single core", what
happens to Skynet when the myriad EMP pulses from the nuclear weapons
goes off? Skynet will cease to exist. I'd rather they had a core that
was heavily ****elded/guarded. Otherwise we have Skynet who is
suicidal. Not to mention that the various machines it controls would
stop working. <SIGH>
