Do you know Murphys laws? With this lots of hardware we will need always
anyone that keeps an eye on the stuff.

Okay, a special mark may be a bit exxagerated, but there should be
someone.

Complicated... A large community of cyborgs. They assimilate humans,
implant lots of technical instruments into the bodies and neural
connectors into their brains, so all of them are connected with each
other and can profit from the knowledge of each other (making them very
efficient) - but the personality is beeng disabled, the will of each
other is controlled by the collective. Some ideas behind the stories of
borg are quite cool, but the ST authors needed a new image of enemy for
the new ST novells so they turned them into mad, civilisation destroying
beeings.
