Macworld takes a look back at Neuromancer, by William Gibson, and compares truth with fiction to see what has become a reality since its publication in 1984. I’ve always loved the juxtaposition between small trivia about Mr. Gibson and the work he produces.

Apparently Gibson had very little knowledge of technology and computers.

Despite, or possibly because of this, his vision has proved to be stunningly plausible.

Although I can’t say for certain this is true, when I met him last year he had expressed that until much later in his life he was adverse to technology.
