Dark Machine is a Gibson! by dml337ira 2007-02-16 01:05:22
Neuromancer: By William Gibson
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuromancer

The new AI that used to be Wintermute/Neuromancer tells Case that it has found another entity like itself by decoding transmissions received over the course of eight years in the 1970s, transmissions that originated in Alpha Centauri.

Neuromancer is considered "the archetypal cyberpunk work" [1], and its winning the Hugo, Nebula, and Dick Awards legitimized cyberpunk as a mainstream branch of science fiction literature.

The book appeared on Time magazine's list of 100 all-time best English-language novels written since 1923.[2]
