As a very, very old person, what do you think the most amazing technological development has been in your lifetime? My guess: the wheel!Originally posted by ArdescoI can do that with mine, amazing what a bit of software and an IR port can do nowdaysComment

That being said I can't really think of an amazing technical development i'm that fussed about...
They had better have sorted out bionic limbs and body parts by the time i'm 70 though, I fully expect to be swapping my crusty old limbs and body parts for nice shiney sculpted bionic ones that perform better than the originals and have all the ladies gasping in excitement as I jog past!!!Comment

Bionic limbs: they're here, sort of, saw it on Richard & Judy last week. Judy: now there's a lady who CAN remember the wheel arriving.Originally posted by ArdescoComment

I don't want the dodgy 1st/2nd generation stuff. I want tried and tested 30th generation stuff that performs better than original limbs and looks like something a sculpted athlete would be proud to wear!!!Originally posted by richard-af

Spock: "Trained? Judging from you, I would have guessed it was trial and error."Comment

Well, not far off! They had a bloke on - he'd lost his hand. He had a "bionic" one, and it worked. Senses electrical impulses and all that. And, unlike a lot of these early prototype jobbies, a la Tomorrow's World, it really did do the stuff.Originally posted by lilelvis2000Comment
