The brains of the inslaved humans could even serve as the framework for the Matrix itself. Perhaps the ultimate computer - millions of linked human brains.

Yeah, I thought of that...works nicely if you apply the lie of "human beings only use 10% of their brain"
That 90% could offer the machines some serious computing power in a reasonably inexpensive way. All they need to do is provide some mindless entertainment for the other 10%!
(Also explains why they used humans, and not cows or some other animal)
