SeaMonkey for Mac PowerPC

A short time ago I mentioned this great browser called SeaMonkey on my second Mac PowerPC post, and after that we started paying more attention to browsers like TenFourFox and Aurora because it seemed more promising and up to date.  But recently I got an e-mail that looked like it was from SeaMonkey, advising I could get new updates from July 27th!  Turns out that they released the 2.11 version advising, “it’s building on the same Mozilla platform as the newest Firefox release, it delivers the latest developments in web technologies such as HTML5, hardware acceleration and improved JavaScript speed”.

If you got a little bit excited by this, you can download the 2.12 Beta 2 as they encourage testers and will be more than happy for you to discuss and report problems you may encounter, as they work to improve their product.
