same goes for [you]'s too.
Akaran, it wouldn't be immortality in "this world" as this world doesn't have the capability to do this yet...and why would you outlive everything that has made you happy in this life if everyone else is doing the same thing? You also wouldn't be watching the world crumble because you'd be long gone before it did as the power to your cyber based mind would be shut off early in any collapse.
If you really wanted a body, I can picture cloning bodies and having a wireless cyber connection that stored all of your activity on a computer so if your cloned body met an untimely demise, you would download your "brain" into another body, having not lost any memories. (don't be cheap, go for the raid system) I'd make a fat and ugly clone so I could see what all the fuss is about. I bet I'd still score more than [you]!
