I've been thinking about that for a while, and I'm not sure I'd be up for that. I believe that, whether you're talking about the destruction and replication of the body or downloading your brain onto a computer, consciousness is what you have. For example, if, as you got die, you had cloned another body, then had your brain "downloaded" into the new body, which would pick up where you left off, you would still be no more immortal than any other figure in history. Sure, the legacy of you as a person would continue, and your brain + a new body might behave and think exactly as you have, but your consciousness ends the second your body gets destroyed.
