On this note. . . I think that this came up before - and that there is a 
game designer reason for the 90's feel for the setting technology - and 
that's to keep the setting from being too strange.

The more that you digress from what people know, the harder it is for the 
setting to grab folks.  HoE is already pretty out there - being a variation 
(supernatural) of a variation (post apocalypse) of a variation (Deadlands 
history/setting). And it introduces a lot of things that weren't even in 
Deadlands.
