As a fairly new user of SeaMonkey can I as why x86_64 is not supported.
I have been running SeaMonkey(2.0.13) on my openSUSE 11.4 Linux system
and have not really experience many problems. Main problem I've seen is
distribution lists do not always import csv files correctly.

Can I install 2.0.14 in parallel with 2.0.13.

Because we don't have the hardware (at the moment) to run the full test
suite/etc. on linux64. And we do not feel comfortable officially
supporting a build we don't run tests on.

as of this year all Mac Computers with Intel chips are 64 bit only X.6.5
and up are 64 bit.


I think more correctly that they are 64 bit capable; but the default boot is still 32 bit, even under 10.6.7. Only the XServe will boot directly into 64 bit mode by default.

Also, whether or not an Intel Mac is capable of 64 bit boot is still dependent on firmware and hardware configuration - some of the older ones are not, even though they can still run 10.6.7. So not "all" of the Intel ones out there (just because of the OS), just all of the latest ones.

In order to do a 64 bit mode boot, you need to hold the "6" and "4" keys down at startup, or use a utility like Startup Mode Selector to get 64 bit boot by default -

I have two that are 64 bit capable (iMac and a Macbook Pro; both Core 2 Duo) but I haven't tried 64 bit mode on either of them.
