The "ultimate" transhumanist would, I guess, be a posthumanist. That's what being a "trans" is all about, isn't it? Transhumanism was never intended to be a goal in itself, but a means to a higher end.
While there is a clear difference between a human and a posthuman, the boundary is much more blurred between human and transhuman, and between advanced transhuman and posthuman.
Also, while the first poster probably had no business answering since he doesn't know what a transhuman is, he does raise a valid point that transhumanism is not necessarily clearly defined. Transhumanism is not just about cybernetic implants, radical biotechnology and nootropics, it requires a certain state of mind, a certain worldview that sees humans as flawed and imperfect but also with great potential to become more, much more than we are now.
