All others should consider upgrading to Firefox and Thunderbird." So, I guess the question becomes, can I unmerge Mozilla and emerge Firefox and Thunderbird? Or do they need to see Mozilla libs somewhere, since they're offered by the same org? Thanks for the input.

How does this stack up against Firefox? I've seen a lot of press about using one or the other, but I'm trying to get a feel for why. Is one better suited to Gentoo than the other? (This particular box is used primarily for business apps and remote webserver/site tweaking when needed). Thanks for the input.
