I used to use Seamonkey on Debian a while back. Do you find it better than running Firefox/Thunderbird/ChatZilla as separate apps? I seem to remember the various components integrating quite nicely. @Mike: Thanks for your suggestion! I used to use Seamonkey on Debian a while back.

I have had the best online experience using this Mozilla product that functions as an e-mail client, web browser, address book, password manager and much more. Wake up and smell the coffee, Mac users! There's other options Is there a reason why Mac users seem to always leave out SeaMonkey? -It’s free open source.

What kind of topics would you like to see instead? @Jose: Zipeg looks pretty neat - thanks for the suggestion. @Ange: Good call, thanks! I use Camino occasionally, and it is very nice. I like the way it integrates nicely with the OS. However as a web developer I find I use Firefox mainly due to all the useful add-ons available. @Grant: :) @Brian: Glad you liked it!

One suggestion, though-- Mozilla also has a browser called Camino, designed specifically for OS X. I've found it is on par with Safari in terms of speed (which was my biggest problem with Firefox on my mac) while still retaining some much beloved Firefox features.

And to top it all you dont even have any google adverts on the page to gain any revenue from this blatant waste of time and effort. yes, exactly what the world needs another list of open source mac software with NOTHING NEW to add to the hundreds already out there.
