RE: [MLUG] Mozilla versus firefox/thunderbird

[Mike Miller <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

You can find a few things here:

http://www.google.com/search?q=%22firefox+vs.+mozilla%22+OR+%22mozilla+vs.+firefox%22

But it isn't very helpful - most people are saying that Mozilla and 
Firefox are nearly the same except that e-mail support in Mozilla is in 
Thunderbird instead of in Firefox.  Other small differences are mentioned 
here and there.

Here's what a Washington Post columnist had to say:

   * How is Firefox different from Netscape or Mozilla? Should I switch to
   it from either of those browsers?

   In most cases, yes. I was an early advocate of Mozilla, but even in my
   mostly glowing review of Mozilla 1.0 I groused about its overdose of
   geekiness and the irrelevance of some included components to most home
   users. (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A55122-2002Jun15.html)

   If you switch from Mozilla to Firefox, you get a simpler, faster and
   better browser, but you do lose Mozilla's non-browser components: an
   e-mail client and newsgroup reader, a Web-page editor and an Internet
   Relay Chat client.
