Play "Deus Ex" if you're interested in this subject. It has a lot of good speculation as to how people would wind up if you gave them various degrees of mechanical, biological, or nanotechnological modifications. One big concern it raises is tension between the rapidly developing state of technology and the permanence of significantly altering the human body. Could an entire person become obsolete if they had their systems rewired before any given major breakthrough?
