Full sized robotic Ai were common when Clint was in high school.
Now he is 21 years old. So the poster is at least 3 years old
Does that mean this strip was 3-4 years ago?

I'm not sure that I follow your line of reasoning?
Mavadotar:
It looks like that's a Super Famicom cartridge held at a weird angle with the label coming over the top like a SNES cartridge, because at first it looked like an N64 cartridge but that would make the controller make no sense. Also, I guess that must be a 3rd party controller because the start and select button layout is weird. Also, Claire importing a Super Famicom seems somewhat unlikely to me. I wonder if QC verse didn't have separate versions of the SNES per region so we're seeing a different variation of the design.

Hannelore mentions earlier in the story that the robot boyfriend is a "prototype," which suggests that it's either the first chassis of its kind or one of the first. Assuming Robot Boyfriend predates Cindee-21, then Clinton would still be in high school then, which is likely about 3 years back.
Then again, it's Comic Time, which is notoriously fluid. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
Farideh:
I always read the 'prototype' bit as 'creating a boyfriend for my daughter', not as 'human-standard AIs'.
Is it cold in here?:
Had we ever seen a humanoid chassis before that one, though?
