I was in the hospital in 2015 and was talking to the person next to me. He realised I was in IT and as he turned his laptop to me he’s like I can’t seem to view websites anymore with toolbars up the wazoo. It was already a throwback even at that time
In ~2005 I was at a job that provided tech support to local hospitals. That’s the first time I saw this image and … It didn’t strike me as too unrealistic.
At that job I once spent seventeen minutes on the phone trying to help a nurse find the semicolon on her keyboard.
Times didn’t change! Anyone that provided any large scale tech support to the actual average person understands that tech is indistinguishable from magic to them
Oh look, my grandparents PC circa 2005

My old motherboard’s driver disc from 2015 would install Google toolbar if you weren’t careful
Aaah the good old “next next next install” you open the browser some time later with a surprise toolbar
