Magic.

I just rolled 1d100 for you, and you don't make the cut.

Not going to lie, I enjoy the idea of Tailor Pheremones, but along with that a Datajack would be fun as well the Idea of AR is really appealing to me and sounds like alot of fun

My awesomeness transcends any dice.

Unfortunately for you, you're still stuck—I didn't actually roll dice, I used a PRNG smile.gif

Nobodys picked Cyber Eye gun? Or Cyber Skates?

Amazing.

So it's only a pseudo-random generator. Pshaw.

You can just carry an 89 if you want to be able to do that, but then you miss the fun of doing math.

No, you can't. A TI-89 doesn't have the capabilities of a Math Co-processor [3].

A TI-89 is a *calculator*. You feed it an equation, it does some operations, and it feeds you the answer. And for the most part, it only does up to junior college level math. It doesn't help you set up any of the equations or interpret them.

In addition to that capability, and acting as a clock, stopwatch, etc, a math co-processor [3] actually provides the mathematics skill at level 6 -- which is to say, with one, you're a world-beater of a mathematician.

You can look at a problem -- a WORD PROBLEM -- and use a math co-processor to solve it. You can't do that with a TI-89. The TI-89 stops at mathematics that was developed in the 1800s or so (Riemann Integration, for example). The Math Co-processor does 20th century+ math (Lebesgue Integration, for example).

There's a HUGE difference between them.

Yeah, but bone density aug will mean I never have another joint surgically reconstructed. And that'd be nice.

Motorbikes or dancing?

(if you have to ask why I included dancing, you really don't want to know...)
Kyrn
Well, dancing inadvertently led to one of the incidents. But knowing my track record I've kept mercifully far from motorbiking.

I did see a kid snap his wrist something fierce breakdancing though. The humerus tore right through some veins and...spurt.

Forget everything else. I'm hanging out for knee replacement. Yep, Cyberknees.

And maybe elbows. And ankles. And definately the neck/spine...

Hmmm...bone lacing and enhanced articulation would be the ticket, I guess.

Since the poll only allows one: Eyes

Otherwise:

At least 4 Essence Points of Cyber and Bioware each could easily be spend between Datajacks, Brain Enhancements, Implanted phones/computers and nice bone mods.

I agree.

Cyber-kness with built-in commlinks and cyber-spurs FTW!

VCR. Pheremone Enhancements a close second 'cause with all the hot bi-elve ninja babes that there apparently are in SR i'd like to make it easier to get me some of that action. cyber.gif

I have already purchased laser-eye surgery for myself; some of the best money I have ever spent.

I predict that there will be therapies available for curing colourblindness within the next 15 years or so; I plan on partaking of them.

The website www.betterhumans.com tries to keep abreast of recent developments that will lead to better access to cybernetics.

I voted VCR, but only because Enhanced Articulation wasnt on there. Seems to be popular among the >25 crowd. Bloody aging joints.

Though, on further consideration, a MCP would be fantastic. I could do my taxes in my head! Well, that and reliably add single digit numbers tougther.
