Definitely read the story! Gibson is mindblowing as a writer. Also, he's the opposite of a tech nerd/geek. He wrote Neuromancer on a manual typewriter, and when he got his first computer, he was confused by it's low-tech victorian-like use of a spinning disk.

That’s an awesome bit of trivia! Never knew that. He wrote a nice forward to neuromancer (more recently) talking about how he completely missed the prediction of something like smartphones - all the screens are still full size. I found that an interesting reflection. Thanks for the rec, Troy!
