I just want the part that has no emotions.

To me they have just gotten in the way and have proven to be a hindrance.
Heck, I hardly feel emotion anyway so it's not going to matter wether I have emotion or not.

What makes you think cyborgs lack emotions? A cyborg is, by definition: a cybernetic organism (i.e. an organism that is a self-regulating integration of artificial and natural systems). If your brain is just transplanted to a machine, it's still your brain.

For lack of a better way to phrase this, I do not have emotions. Robots have been built that exhibit better emotional responses than I do. I guess I'm just curious about your definition of "cyborg."

I can't wait to upload and start beaming across the universe as data, with interchangeable bodies for exploring different planets. Being trapped in this wetware really sucks sometimes.
