Then there's wetware (people).

I miss some of the older ones from my college days (1990s).. million logical instructions per second (megalips), and measuring mouse speed in mickeys/pixel.

Of course there's people, the ID-10-T module needs to be installed somewhere!

With the advent of lab grown animal neurons interfacing with parts, we need to expand the definition of "wetware".

It's meat. Doesn't even need to be people meat. Just meat that can be trained to react to stimuli, which opens up some options depending on complexity.

So technically, the Pigeon Bomb means wetware predates both software and firmware.
