Haven't read Snow Crash, but really enjoyed RP1. Though it's set in the semi-near future, it's got a plot device that means the (very well constructed) story packed with pop culture references from the early 80s to early 90s. If you're the right age to have had an Atari, you're likely to enjoy it more than most. That said, Lucky Palmer is too young to have grown up with this stuff, but is apparently such a big fan of the book that he asks all new hires at Oculus to read it before their first day on the job.
