Is the translation to SM 2.0.8 as simple as downloading it and

Have the makers and providers provided for as simple an installation

Thanks for any insight. Id like to make the move, but at MY advanced
age I‘m not all that swift anymore, and usually opt for the simpler

way forward.

Before any answer, what version of the OS are you running?  SeaMonkey
2.x will not run on Panther, for example.

Thanks!

The answer is yes and no.  SeaMonkey 2.0 stores it's profile data in a
different location then 1.1.x.  Therefore, the first time you run 2.0,
it will attempt to migrate your profile data.  In my experience, this
has been quite smooth, even with my oddball profile setup.  When it is
complete, your old profile will still exist in it's old location,
allowing you to transfer manually if there are any problems.

If you want to retain 1.1.x for awhile, just in case, either move it out
of Applications before installing 2.0 or install the new version to a
different location.

I use SM 1.1.18 for the Mac.
Is the translation to SM 2.0.8 as simple as downloading it and installing it?
Have the makers and providers provided for as simple an installation as 
that, or ... heaven’s forbid ... one must effect the move in stages and with 
attendant file manipulations.

Thanks for any insight. I’d like to make the move, but at MY advanced age
