I like this because it clearly shows just how horribly bad web technologies really are. I used to say the web turned your computer into an IBM 3070 with a 386 under the hood.
Now I'll say the web turns your computer into an IBM 3070 with a TRS-80 under the hood.
Slightly more impressive but yes, it's strange we all get so excited about performance improvements that can only be called less mediocre than the previous iteration.

That's also because it's an emulator. A TRS-80 surely couldn't emulate itself at full speed.
Or into a NES? http://benfirshman.com/projects/jsnes/
