Thanks to the plummeting prices of computing power and DNA technology, a talented kid with a laptop and Internet access could now assemble a complex virus with little or no help.
It may also be worth noting that viral-induced recruitment of intracellular membranes by a complex virus may have eventually led to the formation of the eukaryote nucleus in a process similar to the one used by large dsDNA viruses to form viral envelopes.
Who among us has not downloaded a complex virus to the family computer while watching porn, vehemently denied it, and then sat innocuously in front their dad – who's turning increasingly purple – as BT reel off a very specific list of recently visited addresses to him over the phone?

This was the first study of its kind, analyzing the gene expression of a complex virus upon infection of a host cell.
This is a lucid read on a complex virus, cytomegalovirus (CMV), that affects those in all ages of life from the unborn fetus to the elderly pensioner.
