I kind of felt the same way. He throws in lots of "Future Slang" that you pretty much have to guess or read heavily into context. I got like half way through Neuromancer before I realize that a deck was a computer that you connect to your head. I didn't know "derms" were drugs until part way though. The hacking parts of the story were just vaguely described, so I didn't know what was going on there either. I just figured I wasn't familiar with his writing style and that if I read more of his books I'd understand more.
