3D printer that can print fully-populated functional electronic devices. Design or download a schematic for, say a new camera or phone, make whatever modifications I want, and just hit print!
Basically a replicator for electronic devices...
Why wouldn't a regular replicator beat a specialized replicator?
I wouldn't trust myself with a full replicator. You're gonna have to turn on all the safety protocols, sobriety lockouts, and nutritional programmes.
Otherwise, I'm gonna start off with the intentions of designing a nice camera... and six months later I'll be a wasted super-obese cyborg monster who's caused half the planet to be devoured by self-replicating grey goo.
