Heh, a lot of his stuff is getting that brown-gravy glow about it, too. The very first line in Neuromancer is an anachronism, comparing the sky to '80s-style ant-fight TV static. I haven't read much of his work, and nothing recent, but Neuromancer definitely struck me as one of those 'futures past' that tell us a lot more about the era in which they were written than the one in which they are set.
