Re: Mozilla or firefox package-what is the difference?

I have found that I need three browsers to be able to view/play the most content.

Most sites render well in Firefox and Konqueror but Konqueror sometimes will not play video or sound clips when Firefox 'knows' how to bring up the app that plays the media. I have Opera and I don't use it much anymore because it won't play most media. I think it is due to a Java problem. Occasionally, I use Opera to view content that won't render well in the other browsers. Until Firefox, Opera was the browser I found most useful.

The developers of those browsers should get together and come up with ONE great browser.
Not liklely to happen, since Opera is not Open Source. I have Opera, but virtually never use it anymore, I may remove it. I am working on removing the last vestiges of KDE from my box, which will eliminate Konqueror, as well. It is rare that I find a rendering difference significant enough to warrant opening another browser.

I had tried Seamonkey when it first came out. I don't remember, now, why I decided that I still preferred Firefox.
