Submitted by couch_warrior
couch_warrior writes: Microsoft is now working on a system that will back up the contents of your BRAIN.

A link to the story http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,311727,00.html No mention is made as to whether Microsoft will claim to own the digital rights to the content of your life, or what license fees you will have to pay to access your own memories.
