A black and white advertisement for a cyberpunk briefcase filled with spy gear. Text includes Sony Multimedia CD-ROM Player, Logitech Handheld Scanner, Sony Minidisc Player, Cellular Phone, Voice Changer, Apple PowerBook 180, Stun Gun, Laser Pointer, Sony Pyxis, Private Eye, Pager, Torque Wrenches, Line-Man’s Handset, Electronic Lock Pick, Shotgun Mike, Demon Dialer, Voltimeter, assorted magazines and more. The advertisement asks the question “R.U. a Cyberpunk?” It defines cyberpunk with several humorous definitions including “a computer geek who likes Ministry.

Here’s what you’ll need for your essential cyberpunk starter pack:

  • A shoulder bag overflowing with goodies: This includes a torque wrench, lineman’s handset, electronic lock pick, shotgun mike, and the Demon Dialer (whatever that is).
  • A Sony Pyxis: This nifty gadget helps you find your longitude and latitude via satellite. GPS? Never heard of her.
  • A stun gun: For self-defence (and offence, if you feel feisty).
  • A private eye: Not a real detective, mind you, but a device to keep you online 24/7.
  • A pager: Who wants to answer their phone like a ”normal person”?
  • A combination briefcase: Fanny packs weren’t cool enough for cyberpunks.
  • A selection of reading materials, Including back issues of Mondo 2000, a magazine for all things cyberpunk.
  • A Sony Multimedia CD-ROM Player: Who can resist a pirated copy of Virtual Light?
  • A cellular phone with a scrambler: Because talking in public is too mainstream.
  • A voice changer: So you can sound like, well, anyone!
