"Burning Chrome" is a science fiction short story by Canadian-American writer William Gibson, first published in Omni in July 1982.

"Burning Chrome" tells the story of two freelance hackers—Automatic Jack, the narrator and a hardware specialist; and Bobby Quine, a software expert.

Bobby suggests that they use it to break into the system of a notorious and vicious criminal known as Chrome, who handles money transfers for organized crime, and Jack reluctantly agrees to help.

She uses her earnings to buy a set of cybernetic eye implants for herself and go to Hollywood; however, Jack uses his money to switch her plane ticket to Chiba City, where Rikki has always dreamed of going.

The Finn, a recurring character in Gibson's Sprawl trilogy, makes his first appearance in this story as a minor figure.
