[luna]

that was my fav one  

[Gabriel]

Pauly Shore is not dead, he is crygenicly frozen so that he can be thawed out in the year 3000 for the aniversary showing of Jury Duty 2. Of course, this has nothing to do with Oz, but oh well.

Um, I'm a cyborg and I eat all the time. What do you think a cyborg is, exactly??? You have the meat as well as the chrome, otherwise it would be just a robot. They don't need to eat, but I do. Gotta keep that meat red and pulsing, you know.

So, how much chrome do you have to add before being classified as a cyborg?

Actually, that's an interesting question. It could be argued that you're a cyborg once you have any implants, including the 90-years old granny with her artificial hip!

Or how about corrective eye surgery?
CP2020 played around with this question a bit (though not much more than SR).

However, given that cybernetics (IIRC) means the study of control-systems, I'd say that non-controlled implants, like the artificial hips, or bonelacing doesn't strictly speaking make you a cyborg. However any piece that's to do anything (at all!) on it's own, including moving, makes you a cyborg.

This means eyes, ears, arms, smartlinks and yes, certainly datajacks, chipjacks and their ilk.

[Ruski]

I was thinking something allong the lines of life support.
when the meat controlls the chrome, you are still human.
when the chrome is in charge, and the meat can't live without it, you are a cyborg.

so, an artificial heart would make you a cyborg, while a cyberlimb (that you can live without) would keep you human.

or, perhaps a percentage basis?
one cyber eye isn't enough to make you a cyborg, but if you pass the 3.0 essense mark, you are more metal than human...
