I have found that the newest developments coming out of mozilla are much 
more intelligently designed and slimmed down for mass consumption on any 
system. the most recent Thunderbird and Firefox represent the agility 
and compactness that i am refering to. if you havent looked lately you 
will find an entirely different beast (i disliked  and didnt use 
original mozilla suite for the last 5 years unless i had to and then i 
switched back sometime last year).
