So big deal? Our current structure is limited. Add a little Quantum
Processor PPM
(Plug 'n Play Module) here and an Enhanced Sensory Input coprocessor PPM
there and you've got a better brain. Or how about entirely new structures?
I forsee a day when we're all uploaded into biomechanical brains
(bio/silicon combos probably) than can be constructed out a wide variety of
materials with entirely different structures. We can be gradually uploaded
onto these new platforms from our current "hamburger-helper" brains just as
we can upgrade from a 486 to a Pentium. I can see the machoism already!
"Did you check out that new NeoSapian DX8, thats some hot shit man! I'm
lookin to upgrade my box to Braindows '35". Remember computer lingo is
nothing more than the 1950s male car talk of the 21st Century!
