Have you ever watched the TV series "Lost"!? I originally thought the 'smoke monster' was a swarm of nanobots (as did many others), but the notion was nixed by the shows creators and the origin of the monster is still unknown!. In any case, that's how I pictured the nanobots in 'Prey' - one intelligent cloud, able to split or form shapes and dense enough to lift and hurt people!. It's odd I read the book before ever seeing the show!.

I just sort of pictured it as a giant cloud, or one of those cartoon swarms of bugs that chase the characters awayWww@QuestionHome@Com
