It reminds me of the way a scuba diver's rebreather is supposed to work: the machine works so closely with the function of your lungs that it's not hard to die if you forget its limits, or if there's a seemingly minor glitch.
Black ICE was just a deliberate malfunction.
I'm still disappointed how VRML was supposed to bring the web to Neuromancer's level of interface, but FPS is still the gold standard of usability. I think simulator sickness is going to be like the sound barrier for these machines, until we figure out how to fix that.
