Zoom out. Ignoring the fact everyone now has a supercomputer in their pocket, now you can literally outcompute that era of terminals for <$1. Huge flat screens hang in literally every room with resolutions dozens of times higher per axis than anything of that period. Voice input is finally here, and the very notion of a 'terminal' has become an anachronism.
In context, therefore, I think it's understandable.
