Hi Pat,

I don't hang out at GEEK, prefering to remain available to public
discussion here and to private emails.

I don't have time for everyone and everything.

I remember you did give it a go when we first formed the forum. But you
were using Netscape 4.7 or something and it had an allergic reaction to
the XHTML spec the forum used.

Yes, I don't like ANY forums which don't work as simply as this one.

I see no reason not to continue with Nutscrape 4.7.

A few weeks ago I would have agreed with you but mine started to blow
up on a few sites, as some friends of mine had earlier complained
about with theirs.

Mine did that but a re-install fixed it.
Some sites don't display properly, so i swicth to IE.



Netscape is always behind the curve because they're just taking
Mozilla product and then branding it (which usually also breaks some
of the Mozilla features, like skins and third party 'extensions'). I
mention that because I imagine it's why you're reluctant to 'upgrade'
as there's no new Netscape 'Communicator' version (although they claim
to be coming out with one 'soon') just the browser (which they still
say is beta). Netscape isn't in any hurry, though, because they've
transitioned to web based email.

I did my website in Mozilla wysiwyg, and its not bad until
to want a tailor made background page colour
Netscape does that better, so I strat a coloured page in NS and save in
Mozilla,
and away i go...

The Mozilla project that 'becomes' Communicator is Seamonkey
(previously Mozilla Suite). It looks and operates just like
'Communicator' and will seamlessly upgrade from Netscape Communicator,
incorporating your existing newsgroups and email (if you use Netscape
for email) using the Communicator database that's already there
(located in the Mozilla directory since that's what 'Communicator' is,
a Mozilla product).

http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/

Note that while it would seem logical for Seamonkey to simply be the
Firefox Browser and Thunderbird Email/Newsgroup reader 'combined' the
'separate' versions do not behave the same way and, in particular,
Thunderbird will *copy* the existing 'Communicator' newsgroup/email
database for it's use rather than simply operate on the one that's
already there. (Has to do with the way 'Communicator'/Seamonkey handle
multiple profiles.)

Yeah...

Might not be a problem for you but since I use Communicator (now
seamonkey) as a mail archive reader as well Thunderbird was going to
duplicate multi gigs worth of history and while I could have manually
'fixed' it the different behavior needlessly complicated my multiple
machine archive and backup procedures.

If you prefer separate anyway;

I hardly know what's really better; but with 80GB HD, who cares.
The XP seems to work OK.....

I'd rather have a Mac, but then that's more time and expense....
