Actually, it has. I run an online literary 'zine, and on the approx. 75,000 hits since it's inception, Mozilla is BY FAR the most common browser used. It went something like:

Low Tech Toys?

...I really miss all the "old" toys. I love me some computer-y gadgets, but nothing beats:
* Kaleidoscopes
* Etch-e-sketch (AND those little film things you put over for like mazes and games)
* Legos, especially my old castle set. I'd give worlds for that now. All it was was lego blocks, lego knights, lego horses, a draw bridge, and stuff to make wagons with. Gaaaaah...I wish I could have that back. I'd play with it every week.
* Those glow peg thingies. Lite Brite?
* Those water tic-tac-toe games, where you filled it with water, and tried to get all the balls in a row.
* Variants on the Rubix cube.
* all those fun things at the science stores, like magnetic balls, and gyroscopes, and perpetual motion thingies.
*sigh* The Good Ol' Days of playtime.
I must be like, a geek, or something, but I really wish I had those things again. And board games like Sorry, Go to the Head of the Class, Mouse Trap, Life, And this hippo game I had where you basically played volleyball with these plastic piggy/hippo things that poofed air, and you blew these little light styrofoam balls back and forth. Sort of whiffleball or something? I don't remember what it was called, but it was fun.
