People understand the Moore's-law-kind-of-"old" better than you think, if you give them the right analogy. "Remember what Playstation 1 games looked like? A few scant polygons and textures were all the hardware could manage. Your browser is as old as a PS1.† Websites have gotten better, stronger, faster, and more technologic since 2001, but you can't see any of that—because you're trying to view them in a browser built on the expectation that the most complicated thing the Internet had in store for it was shopping carts. Get a new browser, and see what the last 10 years of progress have let us create." † At the tail-end of its lifespan—but still. |

For example I have no idea what a PS1 was like (or PS2 for that matter?)
