Yes but somebody (a person) developed the new technology , the nes didn't just evolve into a snes by itself somebody developed a new system and scraped the old one.

SO!It makes perfect sense the somebody created apes and then eventually came up with better ideas scraped the old ones and created us.

Did you know that scientists recently discovered how to create a synthetic cells?heres the link. http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2010/05/20/venter-synthetic-genome-cell-bacteria.html if you read it , it actually sounds like were creating a new type of species.Some people believe that the universe is an endless amount of creators somebody created us and somebody created the people who created us and so on.

Actually, the beauty of Darwin's ideas and all those about replicators and evolution that stemmed from them is that you don't need an intelligent designer to proceed from simple to organized structures. That's why Dennet in "Darwin's dangerous idea" compares it to cranes (they work from the bottom up, you can use a crane to build a better crane) versus the creationist "skyhooks" (they work top down, you don't know how they are miracolously affixed up there).

Your infinite chain of creators also reminds me of "turtles all the way down" :)
