There's that, certainly. For me, a few other things: - My bank here in Brazil supported Firefox flawlessly, but had some sort of weird bug with the old Seamonkey that rendered the site unusable. Now I don't have to fire another browser for banking. OK, that's covered under "rendering engine," I guess... - Extensions. Yes, I lost Multizilla for the time being, and I do miss it. But a lot of other extensions which were unavailable for Seamonkey, or available only in old versions, now are within my reach. For instance, DownThemAll... the only version which ran on 1.1.x was the one Philip Chee made available, and that lacks a lot of later improvements, such as the AntiContainer plugin. - The integrated RSS reader in Mail. Sure, I was using Newsfox with the old Seamonkey -- but it's a separate window, I had to manually start it, it's sloooow, and the browser is basically unusable while it checks my 6o-plus feeds, one by one. The one in Mail is more basic than NewsFox, but it's very fast, checks more than one feed at once, and works in the background without bothering me. - Good extension management is certainly a plus. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
