Uplink Hints
OK, I've finished the Tutorial. Now what?
1 of 3: Now the real fun starts. You're now at Skill Level "Beginner" (15) and can take on missions. You should go to the Uplink Internal Services Machine and click on "Mission list". There should be several missions available to you. The number varies from game to game.
2 of 3: The new missions are mostly copying, with some deleting thrown in for good measure.
3 of 3: If you want my advice, take all of the missions available -- you can use them as bounce servers if nothing else. I usually hang on to the few first servers throughout the game -- very low security.
