    Fun fact, when he originally wrote this, he was thinking of dead air during the 60s, where it was just a greyish wash, not the more salt and pepper static of the 80s

    I’m glad someone else thought about this!!

    William Gibson himself talks about this in the retrospective introduction to Neuromancer.

    It took at least a decade for me to realize that many of my readers, even in 1984, could never have experienced Neuromancer’s opening line as I’d intended them to. I’d actually composed that first image with the black-and-white video-static of my childhood in mind, sodium-silvery and almost painful—a whopping anachronism, right at the very start of my career in the imaginary future.

    The color static of the image above is predictably incorrect.

    even the memes making fun of it are too modern. the static was pretty much greyscale on a crt in the 80s.

    I put pen to paper when I was younger and described the rain as "the colour of computer shells".

    Slightly different setting if the reader had a Macbook, an iMac g3, or a Macintosh.

    The 2025 is definitely the most accurate for a cyberpunk setting
