Cyberpunk

In the early spring of 1980 Bruce Bethke wrote a little story about a bunch of teenage hackers. From the very first draft this story had a name, and lo, the name was-- Cyberpunk.

"And you can bet any body part you'd care to name that, had I had even the slightest least inkling of a clue that I would still be answering questions about this word nearly 18 years later, I would have bloody well trademarked the damned thing!"
