Hey!
This is a picture from one of my favorite movies of all time. Do you recognize it?
Anyway, what computer is it in the background?
IBM 3197 terminal

Chew some valerian root and get more exercise?
I like jumpers.

Cool, is that plausible, time wise? Looks kind of old?

Here in Potsdam, there's a long abandoned hospital that appears in pretty much every single movie or TV production that involves a hospital. I'd assume they have the same in Hollywood.
Also, the props people will not always use perfectly time appropriate gear, give it some artistic license.
E.g. the taxi cars you see in the above trailer of a 2011 movie are Mercedes W124 and W210, build between 1984 and 2002. And Berlin taxis don't last that long.
So, maybe that was a stunt PC! 😜
But for a shabby walk-in clinic of 1999, they're probably not even that far off 😉

You're not supposed to talk about it!

I was thinking about it today when I visited the hospital with my 2 year old, maybe it is often the same hospital they film in..
Oh and yeah that hospital is supposed to be pretty shabby, so I guess it is actually on purpose rather than a stunt. Stunt pc haha that cracked me up. 😁
