The China Mieville book I'm reading atm has elements of steampunk; difference engines, steam driven machines etc. In fact, i like it more than The Difference Engine itself which I never finished as it didn't seem to go anywhere. Least favourite Gibson novel in fact.
Think I remember the genre defined as an alternative history based on the idea of the computer being invented in the 19th C.
