What about this one? Anyone remember the computer-room scene in
Scanners? What were the mainframes? Just mock-ups? And what about the
terminals...

Here's an interesting one: does anyone know the name of the machine in Die
Hard? There is one scene where there is a gunfight inside the computer
room (sob, sob), and there is a weird looking bunch of machines. Perhaps
they're just props, but I'm not sure.
One epsiode of "Family Matters" featured an Apple //c. _The Secret of My
Success_ and _Ghost_ (and I'm sure many others) have a few shots with dumb
terminals which I haven't seen before.
