But you're not jamming with the console cowboys there, as much as I wish that happened. I guess I should have hacked the Gibson harder.

On an entirely related note, theoretically there will be a Neuromancer TV show next year.

Huh really? That's exciting! I hope they don't mess it up. It seems long overdue with all these book/video game adaptations that have been coming out.

It's apple plus. I have no idea how any of their stuff is because it's the only service I haven't tried. But I've heard good things about their sci fi offerings.
