Not right now. Maybe once I start getting decrepit and such. For now I like all my humany sensations and stuff.

I just like the infinite stamina, no need to exercise/eat/sleep/etc. and nigh immortality aspects of it, though I'd probably go crazy after 300 years or so.
Hmm...
Or maybe I'd pull an Andrew Martin and end up human again. Irony for the ages...

I'm pretty sure you'd still need to sleep. Sleep is important for the brain to function. Storing long term memory or something like that.
Plus why would you want to give up dreaming? It's pretty interesting to me. I've dreamed up all sorts of crazy things over the years.
Plus I'd think it would be harder to get women as a cyborg. Sure he might have the stamina thing going for him, but there are already battery powered devices around. Humans still have their advantages and disadvantages I guess. Plus plenty of womenfolk like having them there babies a lot.

Those are all very good points, Zeek. I might have to reconsider.
Maybe something less drastic then, like android legs, arms, or spine... You know, upgrades
Isn't that what we're headed toward anyway?

Hmmm now upgrades would be interesting. I wonder when those will be possible. I wouldn't mind some enhanced senses or abilities.

No to the cyborg body, or to upgrades unless required (if I lose a limb or something) but I'd love an Iron Mannish suit of armour! Rocket legs! Repulsor rays! So cool!

You must be the only woman I know who doesn't have parts of her body she wants to replace. So, it's either "good for you" or "DTH is really a creepy dude in his parents basement pretending to be a woman!". Take your pick.
