Agreed. Back in 2004, we did a college project to build a web browser for our CS Class and I built a poor man's browser using Java and Swing (Yes I know I know). Honestly, I was able to load a few websites using it and I was super proud of myself :). Today though, I doubt I can write something like that so quickly and get any adoption since browsers are fully loaded with so much stuff these days.
