Only rich people get the high tech. We proles just get the low life stuff

High-tech lowlife was the whole premise of the genre. I'll admit that my sick-ass cyberdeck is a ThinkPad X230.

This is America. [...]  There's only four things we do better than anyone else

music

movies

high-speed pizza delivery
