Even for eyes? A single point of payload for a ST 10 character is 2 lbs. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem that GURPS ULTRATECH lists the weight. In addition, those with higher ST values will get more bang for the buck with the single point's worth of "Payload". Someone with a ST of 15 will have 4.5 times as much more capacity than someone with a ST of 10.
Another reason why I don't much like the pricing costs for Cybernetics in ULTRATECH is the fact that one bionic eye or ear is worth more as a disadvantage than are 2. That's counter-intuitive to me. <shrug>
We probably should take this to a different thread than to continue to diverge from the "advantage of the week" thread.
