Why can't what started out as your brain be cybornically enhanced to be able to store and rapidly retrieve 2,000 years of memory, or 2,000,000,000 years of memory?

If the particular mechanisms (say your body and brain) which currently supports the thoughts and memories and personalities can be destroyed, why can't what defines your thought and memories and personalities not be backed up as data and restored to allow everything that defines you to continue past that that unfortumate destruction?

If the universe indeed ends, but if universe did originate as a quantum flucturation, who is to say it would be impossible for us to generate another such quantum flucturation, and tune its initial condition such that the information that defines us gets transmitted to the new universe, and new copy of us will arise in the new universe, allowing us to survive even the end of our own universe?

I think there is nothing in principle that would stop us living a overwhelmingly long period of time, only an nasty amount of technical, and therefore overcomeable, hurdles stand in the way.

Good points.
