No, this SeaMonkey is basically the Mozilla Internet suite with a new name and 
a new logo. I have always liked the Internet suite model, and I thought it 
was actually a better fit for corporate use than the Firefox browser and 
Thunderbird e-mail client combined. So, I'm glad to see it making a comeback.

The SeaMonkey suite comes from the SeaMonkey Council, a volunteer group within 
the Mozilla Foundation. The developers have added some nice Firefox touches 
to the old Mozilla suite, including tab creation and management through drag 
and drop, as well as sleeker scrolling.

One unique feature in SeaMonkey is roaming profiles, with which I could save 
user profile information to a Web or FTP server and remotely access it from 
any SeaMonkey-based system. This capability went well beyond simple bookmark 
settings, encompassing manual user configurations and helper applications. 
It's still early, but, done correctly, roaming profiles could be a useful 
feature in corporate environments.

Otherwise, SeaMonkey is the same application as the last release of Mozilla, 
with integrated mail, HTML editing, chat and developer tools.
