Netscape 8 isn't an upgrade. Net 8 is a browser only and nothing
else. Netscape 7.2 was based on a product called Mozilla 1.7.2. Moz
went on to 1.7.13, then it stopped. However, some developers,
testers, users and others didn't want it to stop, so they came out
with a new product call SeaMonkey. SM picks up where Moz left off.

Recently, when I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu that you could
have an order of 6, 9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets. I asked for a half
dozen nuggets. "We don't have half dozen nuggets," said the teenager
at the counter. "You don't?" I asked. "We only have six, nine, or
twelve," was the reply. "So I can't order a half dozen nuggets, but I
can order six?" "That's right." So I shook my head and ordered
six

I'm now using Netscape 7.2.
If I want to upgrade should I install Netscape 8 or Seamonkey?
I really like Netscape. I like an integrated suite.
Which product has the best chances of future development?

and with Opera is either a pain or very difficult to change its

I was checking out at the local Wal-Mart with just a few items and The
lady behind me put her things on the belt close to mine. I picked up
one of those "dividers" that they keep by the cash register and placed

"I've
changed my mind, I don't think I'll buy that today." She said
"OK,"
and I paid her for the things and left. She had no clue what had just
