There's sure to have been the oddd exceptions and some more consumer type tech might not have progressed past 1995-96, but mid 1997 is a good rule of thumb in my book.

While I try not to advance technology beyond 1996 (2001 for military wares) or so I do think the game designers under estimated the technological advancement which would take place in the civilian market in the 13 years between 1984 and 1997. For example I don't think they expected over 600 million personal computers to be in use in 1997. To quote "Free City of Krakow"
