Re: Towards an alternative way forward for Seamonkey
Excellent analogy, Sir Phillip! :-) Pertinent, accurate and most amusing all at the same time. Thanks, keith whaley Philip TAYLOR (Webmaster, Ret'd) wrote: MCBastos wrote: To draw a very simple parallel, there's very little haste and stress involved in getting on the subway to travel cross-town... because if I miss this train, there will be another a few minutes later, and you can get on it with minimum effort and little lost time. Getting on a plane, OTOH, involves quite a lot of worry and rushing around, because if I miss the plane, there might take hours to get on another one, with considerable annoyance, expenses and lost time. Well, let's explore your metaphor further -- let's say you were used to catching the 20:14, which stopped everywhere you wanted it to, didn't stop at strange, out-of-the-way, stations, was reliable, punctual and got you to the office on time. Then the 20:14 was cancelled (well, not really cancelled, but all the station staff told you that it wasn't really safe any more, even though it was exactly the same train you had been using for months), and they really thought that you should start taking the 22:00 instead. So you did what they recommended, and strange things started to happen; it no longer stopped everywhere it used to, stopped at strange, out-of-the-way stations that no-one had ever heard of, your luggage would frequently disappear without trace, you were automatically sat alongside a bunch of other folk you'd never seen before instead of having a carriage to yourself, and various other oddities occurred that forced you to wonder what exactly was so wrong with the good old 20:14. And then the 22:00 was cancelled, and replaced by the 23:00, which had its own set of quirks, and then there was the 24:00 and the 24:10 which replaced it shortly afterwards, and all the staff kept assuring you that this regular change of timetable was in everyone's interest, and they didn't mind working their @rses off so that new timetables could be published every six weeks, and so on. And then someone had a brainwave -- look, he said, just because the rail network keeps introducing new trains doesn't mean that we commuters have to follow suit; why don't we just agree amongst ourselves that /our/ timetable will change only every six months ? Sure there'll be trains that are faster than ours, painted in prettier, more psychedelic colours, with go-faster stripes and all the bells and whistles you could possibly ask for, but our trains will have one great advantage : we will have dry-run them for a minimum of three months before we let a single commuter loose on them; they'll be thoroughly way-tested by our dedicated band of better-testers (as we call them in the rail trade), we'll make sure that all the rough edges to the seats that were there when they left the factory have been removed, we'll make sure that the train stops where /our/ passengers want it to stop, and that it sails through those crazy stations that the rail network think it ought to, and so on. Now wouldn't you, Mr Bastos, think twice before willingly agree to catch a different train every six weeks, and wouldn't you perhaps prefer to catch a slightly slower train in the the sure and certain knowledge that it would be /reliable/, would manifest no unexpected behaviour, and even if it wasn't 100% bullet-proof against the latest weapons of micro-destruction (WMDs, as they are called in the trade, or Viruses and Trojan Horses, as it is rumoured they were once known), there was still a 99.999% probability that you would arrive safely, particularly because you long ago invested in some good, modern, anti-WMD protection that made sure that your train would almost never encounter those WMDs in the first place ?

None of those are the latest versions, so comparing those versions isn't that useful - but at least IE8 is right in that it's the latest for XP. SeaMonkey 2.4.1 is current, as are Firefox 7.0.1 (7.2 does and will not exist) and Chrome is already at 14, IIRC. From all I heard, Chrome 14 probably uses the most resources of those, while IE8 and Firefox 7 probably use fewest, with the downside that IE8 lacks a lot of the modern Internet features all of the others have (and IE9 also partially has).

What you can't do is to relocate the file that tells SeaMonkey where your profiles are (profiles.ini). Things get more complicated if you also have mail and news accounts and your profile is rather old and crusty and inherited from the Mozilla 1.6 or Netscape 7 days.
