It's about time for this. In the eighties I grew up watching the bionic man, night rider, MacGyver etc. The promise was broken. I'm old now and my knees are shot and I'm suffering with cateracts and a crap health care system that takes years to get it addressed. So hurry up science, I'm not impressed.


I was thinking Knight Visions from Snow Crash! Need to integrate some other techs for the full experience.


There is still plenty of time to make you a bionic man yet. As the Germans say, the rate of innovation is hitting breakneck fart.


The six million dollar man adjusted for inflation is a paltry $42M! Plus with advances in technology and medicine, it'll probably cost much less. I wouldn't count on it being covered by insurance though.


They will be glad to cover it. Anything to drive up premiums.
