I finally got around to Stephenson. Not sure what I have been doing putting him off this long!! Eeeek! Anyway... I am about half-way through Snow Crash right now and it is excellent, though I am afraid it makes me want to fire up Warcraft again or something.

When you've finished Snow Crash, try Cryptonomicon then go for his Baroque trilogy! Total change of era, but a fantastic read.

If you want to see something truly like the Metaverse, try Second Life (has a Linux version).
