Also I randomly picked another book off that picture that I'm going to read. Magician: Apprentice by Feist.
I thought Snow Crash was great, but I liked Stephenson's Diamond Age even better. Go for Snow Crash first though since it's more iconic.

Another good old school SciFi book that was on your NPR chart was Lucifer's Hammer.
