Okay, if they can make computers that small, when can they put one into my brain and make it possible for me to do everything I do with my old laptop and my TV while sitting on my sofa in my living room . . . anywhere I happened to be at the moment?

They eventualy will. The day isn't too far away until computers and chips will be implated in the brain that will acess the internet directly. It'll start with a cell phone acess and lead to a complete net acess.

THEN....The ability of the system to completely control you will be the next step.

Where do you think the Borg came from???
