Well as SeaMonkey anyhoo...

Err ... what are they talking about? 28th September on the dateline? I down loaded a Seamonkey alpha months ago.

But great news nevertheless. The Firefox UI is, bluntly, a pile of crap. Mozilla eats it.

The king is dead. Long live the king!

This "Firefox UI is, bluntly, a pile of crap. Mozilla eats it. " business is reminiscent of the Nvidia/ATI wars of yore

Frankly I think Tannin has gone crazy. What is wrong with Firefox's UI?

 

[mubs]

Tim, olde men like Tannin and me have earned the right to be crazy/cranky! :lol:

As I recall, Tannin has a specific objection to the Downloads window.

Personally, I can't understand why anyone who uses Opera would be complaining about something as positively vanilla as Firefox.

 

[Tannin]

It's a classic dumbed-down-for-morons UI, with a whole stack of stuff stripped out because they think people are stupid. They are, unfortunately, right in most cases.

Lately I've been installing the IE skin for Firefox and changing the firefox icon to the blue E, then deleting all the IE shortcuts. Amazingly enough, absolutely no one has complained about it.
